Feats with the additive trait allow you to spend actions to add special substances to bombs or elixirs.
The additive trait is always followed by a level, such as additive 2. An additive adds its level to the level of the alchemical item you’re modifying; the result is the new level of the mixture. The mixture’s item level must be no higher than your advanced alchemy level.
You can add only one additive to a single alchemical item, and attempting to add another spoils the item.
You can typically use actions with the additive trait only when you’re creating an infused alchemical item, and some can be used only with the Quick Alchemy action.
Requirements You have Healer’s Tools.
You perform first aid on an adjacent creature that is Dying or bleeding (has Persistent Damage with type "bleed").
If a creature is both dying and bleeding, choose which ailment you’re trying to treat before you roll. You can Administer First Aid again to attempt to remedy the other effect.

During your daily preparations, after producing new infused reagents, you can spend batches of those infused reagents to create infused alchemical items.
You don’t need to attempt a Crafting check to do this, and you ignore both the number of days typically required to create the items and any alchemical reagent requirements.
Your advanced alchemy level is equal to your level.
For each batch of infused reagents you spend, choose an alchemical item of your advanced alchemy level or lower that’s in your formula book, and make a batch of two of that item.
These items have the trait and remain potent for 24 hours or until your next daily preparations, whichever comes first.
| Bomber | Advanced Alchemy | At level 5, reageants can make any three bombs. |
|---|---|---|
| Chirurgeon | Advanced Alchemy | At level 5, make three elixirs of life per batch, not 2. |
| Mutagenist | Advanced Alchemy | Create any 3 mutagens per batch of reagents. |
| Toxicologist | Advanced Alchemy | At level 5, one batch can make any 3 poisons. |
You use your medical training to ameliorate sickness or assuage fears.
When you use Medicine to Administer First Aid, instead of Stabilizing a character or Stopping Bleeding, you can reduce an ally’s Frightened or Sickened condition by 2, or remove either of those conditions entirely on a critical success.
You can remove only one condition at a time.
The DC for the Medicine check is usually the DC of the effect that caused the condition.

You harness your mastery of primal forces to reshape your body into a Medium flying animal battle form.
When you cast this spell, choose bat, bird, pterosaur, or wasp. You can decide the specific type of animal (such as an owl or eagle for bird), but this has no effect on the form’s Size or statistics.
While in this form, you gain the Animal trait.
You gain Low-Light Vision.
You can Dismiss the spell.
You gain the following statistics and abilities regardless of which battle form you choose, depending on the level to which the spell was Heightened:
| Level | AC | Size | Temp HP | Attack Modifier | Damage Bonus | Acrobatics | Fly Speed Bonus |

| 6 | 21+your level | Huge | 15 | +21 | +4 | +23 | +15' |
You ignore your armor's check penalty and Speed reduction when in your aerial form.
The unarmed melee attacks specific to the battle form you choose are the only attacks you can use. You’re trained with them. These attacks are Dexterity based (for the purpose of the clumsy condition, for example). If your attack modifier for Dexterity-based unarmed attacks is higher, you can use it instead.
If your own Acrobatics modifier is higher than the one for your form, you can use it instead.
The bonus given to your Fly speed is a status bonus.
If you cast the spell at level 6, you additionally gain 10' reach and damage dice are doubled, including for Persistent Damage.
If you are made larger by casting the spell, you must have enough room to expand into or the spell is lost.
You also gain specific abilities based on the form you choose:
The special statistics of a battle form can be adjusted only by circumstance bonuses, status bonuses, and penalties.
You can't cast spells, speak, or use Manipulate actions that require hands in your battle form.
Your gear is absorbed into you; the constant abilities of your gear still function, but you can’t activate any items.

Diseases and poisons are types of afflictions, as are curses and radiation. An affliction can infect a creature for a long time, progressing through different and often increasingly debilitating stages.
The level of an affliction is the level of the monster, hazard, or item causing the affliction or, in the case of a spell, is listed in the affliction entry for that spell.
When you’re first exposed to the affliction, you must attempt a saving throw against it. This first attempt to stave off the affliction is called the initial save.
An affliction usually requires a Fortitude save, but the exact save and its DC are listed after the name and type of affliction. Spells that can poison you typically use the caster’s spell DC.
On a successful initial saving throw, you are unaffected by that exposure to the affliction. You do not need to attempt further saving throws against it unless you are exposed to the affliction again.
If you fail the initial saving throw, after the affliction’s onset period elapses (if applicable), you advance to stage 1 of the affliction and are subjected to the listed effect. On a critical failure, after its onset period (if applicable), you advance to stage 2 of the affliction and are subjected to that effect instead.
Some afflictions have onset times. For these afflictions, once you fail your initial save, you don’t gain the effects for the first stage of the affliction until the onset time has elapsed. If this entry is absent, you gain the effects for the first stage (or the second stage on a critical failure) immediately upon failing the initial saving throw.
If an affliction lasts only a limited amount of time, it lists a maximum duration. Once this duration passes, the affliction ends. Otherwise, the affliction lasts until you succeed at enough saves to recover.
An affliction typically has multiple stages, each of which lists an effect followed by an interval in parentheses. When you reach a given stage of an affliction, you are subjected to the effects listed for that stage.
At the end of a stage’s listed interval, you must attempt a new saving throw.
On a success, you reduce the stage by 1; on a critical success, you reduce the stage by 2. On a failure, the stage increases by 1; on a critical failure, the stage increases by 2. You are then subjected to the effects listed for the new stage.
Afflictions with the virulent trait are harder to remove. You must succeed at two consecutive saves to reduce a virulent affliction’s stage by 1. These saves are made over the course of two intervals, not both at once. A critical success reduces a virulent affliction’s stage by only 1 instead of by 2.
If the affliction’s stage is ever reduced below stage 1, the affliction ends and you don’t need to attempt further saves unless you’re exposed to the affliction again.
If a failure or critical failure would increase the stage beyond the highest listed stage, the affliction instead repeats the effects of the highest stage.
An affliction might give you conditions with a longer or shorter duration than the affliction. For instance, if an affliction causes you to be drained but has a maximum duration of 5 minutes, you remain drained even after the affliction ends, as is normal for the drained condition. Or, you might succeed at the flat check to remove persistent damage you took from an ongoing affliction, but you would still need to attempt saves to remove the affliction itself, and failing one might give you new persistent damage.
Multiple exposures to the same Curse or Disease currently affecting you have no effect.
For a Poison, however, failing the initial saving throw against a new exposure increases the stage by 1 (or by 2 if you critically fail) without affecting the maximum duration. This is true even if you’re within the poison’s onset period, though it doesn’t change the onset length.

You ward an area to alert you when creatures enter without your permission.
When you cast alarm, select a password.
Whenever a Small or larger corporeal creature enters the spell’s area without speaking the password, alarm sends your choice of a mental alert (in which case the spell gains the Mental trait) or an audible alarm with the sound and volume of a hand bell (in which case the spell gains the Auditory trait).
Either option automatically awakens you, and the bell allows each creature in the area to attempt a DC 15 Perception check to wake up.
A creature aware of the alarm must succeed at a Stealth check against the spell’s DC or trigger the spell when moving into the area.

You punish a creature that transgresses against your deity, drawing upon the anguish you feel upon seeing one of your deity’s anathema committed.
You can cast this spell only when a creature actively commits a unique act of anathema. For example, if creating undead were anathema to your deity, you could use anathematic reprisal on a necromancer who had just created undead in front of you, but not on an undead creature just for existing.
You deal 4d6 mental damage to the target, but a basic Will save can reduce this damage. If it fails, it is also stupefied 1 for 1 round.
The creature is then temporarily immune for 1 minute.
Heightened (+1) The damage increases by 1d6.

The memories of long-dead spellcasters grant you knowledge in a specific skill.
Choose any non-Lore skill, or a Lore skill related to the ancient empire from which your bloodline sprang. You temporarily become trained in that skill and might gain other memories associated with an ancestor who was trained in that skill.

An animal is a creature with a relatively low intelligence.
It typically doesn’t have an Intelligence modifier above –4, can’t speak languages, and can’t be trained in Intelligence-based skills.
You call upon primal energy to transform yourself into a Medium animal battle form.
When you first cast this spell, choose ape, bear, bull, canine, cat, deer, frog, shark, or snake. You can decide the specific type of animal (such as lion or snow leopard for cat), but this has no effect on the form’s Size or statistics.
While in this form, you gain the Animal trait.
You can Dismiss the spell.
You gain the following statistics and abilities regardless of which battle form you choose:
You also gain specific abilities based on the type of animal you choose:

You offer a gift of food, and an ordinary Tiny wild animal within range approaches to eat it.
You imprint the image, direction, and distance of an obvious place or landmark well known to you within the animal.
Optionally, you can attach a small object or note up to light Bulk to it.
The animal does its best to reach the destination; if it makes it there, it waits nearby until the duration expires, allowing other nonhostile creatures to approach it and remove the attached object.
If there are no Tiny wild animals in range, the spell is lost.
The spell ends after 24 hours or when a creature removes the attached object, whichever happens first.

You tap into the target's senses, allowing you to see, hear, and otherwise sense whatever it senses for the spell's duration.
If the target wishes to prevent you from doing so, it can attempt a Will save, negating the spell on a success, but most animals don't bother to do so.
While tapping into the target's senses, you can't use your own body's senses, but you can change back and forth from your body's senses to the target's senses using a single action, which has the Concentrate trait.

You repel all magic from the target area, preventing spells and other magic from functioning.
Spells can't penetrate the area, magic items cease to function within it, and no one inside can cast spells or use magic abilities.
Likewise, spells such as Dispel Magic can't affect the field itself unless they are of a higher level.
Magic effects resume the moment they pass outside the field. For example, a ray fired from one side of the field could target a creature on the other side (as long as caster and target are both outside the field). A summoned creature winks out of existence but reappears if the field moves or ends. Invested magic items cease to function, but they remain invested and resume functioning when they exit the field.
The ability boost from an apex item isn't suppressed within the field.
Spells of a higher level than the antimagic field overcome its effects, and can even be cast by a creature within the field.
The field disrupts only magic, so a +3 longsword still functions as a longsword.
Magically created creatures (such as golems) function normally within an antimagic field.

A sphere of water 10 feet in diameter forms in an unoccupied space in range, either on the ground or on the surface of a liquid.
When you Cast the Spell and each time you Sustain the Spell, you can roll the orb, moving it up to 10 feet along the ground or the surface of a liquid. Unlike most spells, you can gain this effect multiple times in the same round by Sustaining the Spell multiple times.
The orb can move through the spaces of any creatures or obstacles that wouldn’t stop the flow of water.
It extinguishes non-magical fires it moves through of its size or smaller, and it attempts to Counteract any magical fires it moves through. If it fails to counteract a given fire, it can’t counteract that fire for the duration of the spell.
The orb can also collect creatures it moves through. Any Large or smaller creature whose space the orb tries to move through can attempt a Reflex save against your spell DC to avoid being engulfed. If a creature succeeds at this save, it can either let the orb pass (remaining in its space or moving out of the orb’s path into a space of the creature’s choice) or allow itself to be pushed in front of the orb to the end of the orb’s movement.
The orb can try to Engulf the same creature only once per turn, even if you roll it onto a creature’s space more than once.
A creature that fails its save is pulled into the orb. It becomes Grabbed, moves along with the orb, and must hold its breath or begin Suffocating (unless it can breathe in water).
An engulfed Medium or smaller creature and anyone trying to affect that creature follow the normal rules for aquatic battles.
An engulfed Large creature is usually big enough that parts of it stick out from the water, and it can reach out of the water.
An engulfed creature can get free either by Swimming with a successful DC 10 Athletics check or by Escaping against your spell DC. A creature that critically failed its Reflex save is further stuck and must attempt to Escape instead of Swim.
A freed creature exits the orb’s space and can immediately breathe.

Arcane spellcasters use logic and rationality to categorize the magic inherent in the world around them.
Because of its far-reaching approach, the arcane tradition has the broadest spell list, though it’s generally poor at affecting the spirit or the soul.
Wizards are the most iconic arcane spellcasters, poring over tomes and grimoires, though arcane Sorcerers study the secrets of their blood to unlock the power within themselves.

You undermine the target spell, making it easier to defend against. You reduce the spell’s level by 1, and targets of the spell gain a +2 status bonus to any saving throws, skill checks, AC, or DC against it.
You can’t reduce the spell’s level below its minimum. For example, a 5th-level Cone of Cold would remain 5th-level, but a 5th-level [[Fireball[[ would become 4th-level. Targets still gain all the other benefits, even if you don’t reduce the spell’s level.

If you have expert proficiency in Crafting, the item grants a +1 item bonus to attack rolls if it’s a weapon or skill checks if it’s a skill tool.
The target is a beautiful and impressive piece for its new quality, but the effect is obviously temporary, so its monetary value doesn’t change.
When you cast this spell, any previous artistic flourish you had cast ends.

You can take steps to help yourself recover from Persistent Damage, or an ally can help you, allowing you to attempt an additional flat check before the end of your turn.
This is usually an activity requiring 2 actions, and it must be something that would reasonably improve your chances (as determined by the GM). For example, you might try to smother a flame, wash off acid, or use Medicine to Administer First Aid to stanch bleeding. This allows you to attempt an extra flat check immediately.
The GM decides how your help works, using the following examples as guidelines.
Prerequisite Trained in at least one skill.
Even in the worst circumstances, you can perform basic tasks.
Choose a skill you’re trained in.
You can forgo rolling a skill check for that skill to instead receive a result of 10 + your proficiency bonus (do not apply any other bonuses, penalties, or modifiers).
This includes not applying situational circumstance, status, and item modifiers.
You can select this feat multiple times. Each time, choose a different skill and gain the benefits for that skill.

An attached weapon must be combined with another piece of gear to be used. The trait lists what type of item the weapon must be attached to.
You must be wielding or wearing the item the weapon is attached to in order to attack with it.
For example, shield spikes are attached to a shield, allowing you to attack with the spikes instead of a shield bash, but only if you’re wielding the shield.
An attached weapon is usually bolted onto or built into the item it’s attached to, and typically an item can have only one weapon attached to it.
An attached weapon can be affixed to an item with 10 minutes of work and a successful DC 10 Crafting check; this includes the time needed to remove the weapon from a previous item, if necessary.
If an item is destroyed, its attached weapon can usually be salvaged.

You gain a vague glimpse of the future.
During the casting of this spell, ask about the results of a particular course of action.
The spell can predict results up to 30 minutes into the future and reveals the GM’s best guess among the following outcomes:
The GM rolls a secret DC 6 flat check. On a failure, the result is always “nothing.” This makes it impossible to tell whether a “nothing” result is accurate.
If anyone asks about the same topic as the first casting of augury during an additional casting, the GM uses the secret roll result from the first casting. If circumstances change, though, it’s possible to get a different result.

An aura automatically affects everything within a specified Emanation around the user.
The user doesn’t need to spend actions on the aura.
The aura’s effects are applied at specific times, such as when a creature ends its turn in the aura or when creatures enter the aura.
If an aura does nothing but deal damage, its entry lists only the radius, damage, and saving throw. Such auras deal this damage to a creature when the creature enters the aura and when a creature starts its turn in the aura. A creature can take damage from the aura only once per round.
The GM might determine that a monster’s aura doesn’t affect its own allies. For example, a creature might be immune to a monster’ Frightful Presence if they have been around each other for a long time.
Prerequisites Expert in a skill with the Recall Knowledge action, Assurance in that skill.
You know basic facts off the top of your head.
Choose a skill you’re an expert in that has the Recall Knowledge action and for which you have the Assurance feat.
You can use the Recall Knowledge action with that skill as a free action once per round. If you do, you must use Assurance on the skill check.

If you’re a Bard Casting a Spell from the Occult tradition while holding a musical instrument, you can can usually play an instrument for spells requiring somatic or material components, as long as it takes at least one of your hands to do so. If you use an instrument, you don’t need a spell component pouch or another hand free. You can usually also play an instrument for spells requiring verbal components, instead of speaking.

In even a brief conversation or social interaction, you pick up on subtle social and visual cues to learn a great deal about a person’s origin and history. You might notice bits of green under the person’s fingernails and determine they’re an herbalist, a pin indicating their membership in a secret society, or something similar.
You pick up on only details that have to do with their societal role, so you might learn the city district where a vampire lives, but wouldn’t learn any of their weaknesses, nor necessarily even that they are a vampire.
Spend 1 minute in the presence of someone you haven’t met before, or haven’t met since you first gained Biographical Eye, then attempt a DC 30 Society check. You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to the check if you engaged the person in conversation during this time.
| Critical Success | You learn the creature’s profession, their specialty within that profession, and a major accomplishment or controversy from their career. You also learn the nation and settlement where they live, as well as the district in a city large enough to have districts.

Prerequisites Deity who grants Heal Divine Font.
You channel positive energy into restoratives that ward against harm.
When you Craft an alchemical item that restores Hit Points (rather than create it with advanced alchemy, Quick Alchemy, or another means), it becomes a blessed alchemical item and gains the trait. For example, an elixir of life would become a blessed elixir of life.
When a creature regains Hit Points using a blessed alchemical item, the overflowing energy grants them negative resistance 5 for 1 round, or negative resistance 10 if you are legendary in Crafting.

Prerequisites Deity who grants Harm Divine Font.
You pour negative energy into toxins you create to further debilitate your targets.
When you Craft an alchemical poison (rather than create it with advanced alchemy, Quick Alchemy, or another means), it becomes a blessed alchemical poison and gains the trait.
When a creature is afflicted with a blessed alchemical poison, for 1 round, any Hit Points it would regain from a effect are reduced by 5, or by 10 if you are legendary in Crafting.

You specialize in explosions and other violent alchemical reactions.
Level 1: You start with the formulas for two 1st-level alchemical bombs in your formula book, in addition to your other formulas.
Level 1: When throwing an alchemical bomb with the trait, you can deal splash damage to only your primary target instead of the usual splash area.
Level 5: When using advanced alchemy to make bombs during your daily preparations, you can use a batch of reagents to create any three bombs instead of just two of the same bomb.
Level 13: You can increase the splash on your bombs to damage creatures within 10 feet, or 15 feet if you have Expanded Splash.
You launch an insightful quip at a foe, distracting them.
Choose a foe within 30 feet and roll a Diplomacy check against the target’s Will DC.
| Critical Success | The target is distracted and takes a -3 status penalty to Perception and Will saves for 1 minute. The target can end the effect early with a retort to your Bon Mot. This can either be a single action that has the trait or an appropriate skill action to frame their retort. The GM determines which skill actions qualify, though they must take at least 1 action. Typically, the retort needs to use a Charisma-based skill action. |
|---|---|
| Success | As critical success, but the penalty is -2. |
| Failure | |
| Critical Failure | Your quip is atrocious. You take the same penalty an enemy would take had you succeeded. This ends after 1 minute or if you issue another Bon Mot and succeed. |

Prerequisites Expert in Nature.
You forge strong connections with animals.
You can spend 7 days of downtime trying to bond with a normal animal (not a companion or other special animal).
After this duration, attempt a DC 20 Nature check. If successful, you bond with the animal.
The animal is permanently Helpful to you, unless you do something egregious to break your bond. A helpful animal is easier to direct, as described under Command an Animal.
Bonding with a new animal ends any previous bond you had.
You can’t have both a bonded animal and an animal companion (though you can have both a bonded animal and a familiar).

If the foe can’t move into an empty space (if it is surrounded by solid objects or other creatures, for example), your Boulder Roll has no effect.

Broken is a condition that affects objects. An object is broken when damage has reduced its Hit Points below its Broken Threshold. A broken object can’t be used for its normal function, nor does it grant bonuses—with the exception of armor.
Broken armor still grants its item bonus to AC, but it also imparts a status penalty to AC depending on its category: –1 for broken light armor, –2 for broken medium armor, or –3 for broken heavy armor.
A broken item still imposes penalties and limitations normally incurred by carrying, holding, or wearing it. For example, broken armor would still impose its Dexterity modifier cap, check penalty, and so forth.
If an effect makes an item broken automatically and the item has more HP than its Broken Threshold, that effect also reduces the item’s current HP to the Broken Threshold.
Your fury makes your weapons lethal.
Your proficiency ranks for simple weapons, martial weapons, and unarmed attacks increase to expert.
While raging, you gain access to the Critical Specialization Effects for melee weapons and unarmed attacks.
Most monsters that serve as mounts can attempt to buck off unwanted or annoying riders, but most mounts will not use this reaction against a trusted creature unless the mounts are spooked or mistreated.
Trigger A creature Mounts or uses the Command an Animal action while riding the monster.
The triggering creature must succeed at a Reflex saving throw against the listed DC or fall off the creature and land prone.
If the save is a critical failure, the triggering creature also takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage in addition to the normal damage for the fall.

Carrying especially heavy or unwieldy items can make it more difficult for you to move, as can overloading yourself with too much gear.
The Bulk value of an item reflects how difficult the item is to handle, representing its size, weight, and general awkwardness.
If you have a high Strength score, you usually don’t need to worry about Bulk unless you’re carrying numerous substantial items.
You can carry an amount of Bulk equal to 5 plus your Strength modifier without penalty; if you carry more, you gain the Encumbered condition. You can’t hold or carry more Bulk than 10 plus your Strength modifier.
Items can have a number to indicate their Bulk value, or they can be light (indicated by an L) or negligible (indicated by a —) for the purpose of determining Bulk. For instance, full plate armor is 4 Bulk, a longsword is 1 Bulk, a dagger or scroll is light, and a piece of chalk is negligible.
Ten light items count as 1 Bulk, and you round down fractions (so 9 light items count as 0 Bulk, and 11 light items count as 1 Bulk).
Items of negligible Bulk don’t count toward Bulk unless you try to carry vast numbers of them, as determined by the GM.
As a general rule, an item that weighs 5 to 10 pounds is 1 Bulk, an item weighing less than a few ounces is negligible, and anything in between is light.
Particularly awkward or unwieldy items might have higher Bulk values. For example, a 10-foot pole isn’t heavy, but its length makes it difficult for you to move while you have one on your person, so its Bulk is 1. Items made for larger or smaller creatures have greater or lesser Bulk.

A burst effect issues forth in all directions from a single corner of a square within the range of the effect, spreading in all directions to a specified radius.
For instance, when you cast fireball, it detonates at the corner of a square within 500 feet of you and creates a 20-foot burst, meaning it extends out 20 feet in every direction from the corner of the square you chose, affecting each creature whose space (or even one square of its space) is within the burst.
Squares should be measured in the standard way, with every other diagonal square measured as 10'. Bursts are approximately circular, not square.
The size of a burst mentioned in an effect description is always its radius. Some effects specifically mention "radius". This does not indicate a special case.
The descriptions of backgrounds frequently contain non-OGL setting material and are not included here. This background is found in Extinction Curse Player's Guide.

You cast a spell you have prepared or in your repertoire.
Casting a Spell is a special activity that takes a variable number of actions depending on the spell, as listed in each spell’s stat block.
As soon as the spellcasting actions are complete, the spell effect occurs.
Some spells are cast as a reaction or free action. In those cases, you Cast the Spell as a reaction or free action (as appropriate) instead of as an activity. Such cases will be noted in the spell’s stat block—for example, “[reaction] verbal.”
Some spells take minutes or hours to cast. The Cast a Spell activity for these spells includes a mix of the listed spell components, but it’s not necessary to break down which one you’re providing at a given time. You can’t use other actions or reactions while casting such a spell, though at the GM’s discretion, you might be able to speak a few sentences.
As with other activities that take a long time, these spells have the Exploration trait, and you can’t cast them in an encounter. If combat breaks out while you’re casting one, your spell is disrupted.
Each spell lists the spell components required to cast it after the action icons or text, such as “[three-actions] material, somatic, verbal." The spell components, described in detail below, add traits and requirements to the Cast a Spell activity. If you can’t provide the components, you fail to Cast the Spell.
Some abilities and spells can disrupt a spell, causing it to have no effect and be lost.
When you lose a spell, you’ve already expended the spell slot, spent the spell’s costs and actions, and used the Cast a Spell activity.
If a spell is disrupted during a Sustain a Spell action, the spell immediately ends.

Unless otherwise noted, a monster cannot use Change Shape to appear as a specific individual.
Using Change Shape counts as creating a disguise for the Impersonate use of Deception. It gains a +4 status bonus to its Deception DC to prevent others from seeing through its disguise.

Change Shape abilities specify what shapes the monster can adopt.
The monster doesn’t gain any special abilities of the new shape, only its physical form. For example, in each shape, it replaces its normal Speeds and Strikes, and might potentially change its senses or size. Any changes are listed in its stat block.

| Success | The target is Stunned 1 as it wrestles with the urge. |

This might require the target to Interact to retrieve an item or move to reach the nearest creature, and handing the item to the target always requires an Interact action. |
| Critical Failure | As failure, except the duration is 4 rounds, and the target must repeat the effects of failure on each of its turns. At the end of each of its turns, the target can attempt a new Will save to reduce the remaining duration by 1 round, ending it entirely on a critical success. |

You’ve learned to mimic the abilities of spellcasters by studying their flourishes and words.
When you activate a magic item to generate a spell effect, attempt a Deception check. If you succeed against an onlooker’s Perception DC, to that onlooker, you appear to Cast that Spell instead.
Onlookers who successfully Recognize the Spell realize you used a magic item, though those who later successfully Identify the Magic still can’t determine that the source of the effect was a magic item.

Prerequisites Trained in Deception.
Your charm allows you to win over those you lie to.
When you get a critical success using the Lie action, the target’s attitude toward you improves by one step, as though you’d succeeded at using Diplomacy to Make an Impression.
This works only once per conversation, and if you critically succeed against multiple targets using the same result, you choose one creature’s attitude to improve.
You must be lying to impart seemingly important information, inflate your status, or ingratiate yourself, which trivial or irrelevant lies can’t achieve.

You create an opaque Wall of light in a single vibrant color.
The wall is straight and vertical, stretching 60 feet long and 30 feet high.
If the wall would pass through a creature, the spell is lost.
The wall sheds bright light for 20 feet on each side, and dim light for the next 20 feet. You can ignore the wall’s effects when passing thorugh, but it still blocks your weapons and effects.
Roll 1d4 to determine the color of the wall. Each color has a particular effect on items, effects, or creatures that attempt to pass through.
Chromatic wall can’t be Counteracted normally; rather, each color is automatically counteracted when targeted by a specific spell, even if that spell’s level is lower than that of chromatic wall.

You drape the target in a mantle of swirling shadows that make it harder to see.
The cloak reduces Bright Light within a 20-foot Emanation to Dim Light. This is a form of magical darkness and can therefore overcome non-magical light or attempt to Counteract magical light.
The target can use the Concealed condition gained from the shadows to Hide, though observant creatures can still follow the moving aura of shadow, making it difficult for the target to become completely undetected.
The target can use an Interact action to remove the cloak and leave it behind as a decoy, where it remains, reducing light for the rest of the spell’s duration.
If anyone picks up the cloak after it’s been removed by the original target, the cloak evaporates and the spell ends.

Your movements become clumsy and inexact.
Clumsy always includes a value. You take a status penalty equal to the condition value to Dexterity-based checks and DCs, including AC, Reflex saves, ranged attack rolls, and skill checks using Acrobatics, Stealth, and Thievery.
With threats either veiled or overt, you attempt to bully a creature into doing what you want.
You must spend at least 1 minute of conversation with a creature you can see and that can either see or sense you.
At the end of the conversation, attempt an Intimidation check against the target’s Will DC, modified by any circumstances the GM determines.
| Critical Success | The target gives you the information you seek or agrees to follow your directives so long as they aren’t likely to harm the target in any way. The target continues to comply for an amount of time determined by the GM but not exceeding 1 day, at which point the target becomes Unfriendly (if they weren’t already unfriendly or Hostile). However, the target is too scared of you to retaliate—at least in the short term. |

Trigger You use Quick Alchemy to craft an alchemical item that has the trait and is at least 2 levels lower than your Advanced Alchemy level.
You’ve discovered how to mix two elixirs into a single hybrid concoction.
You can spend 2 additional batches of infused reagents to add a second elixir to the one you’re crafting.
The second elixir must also be at least 2 levels lower than your advanced alchemy level, and the combination elixir is an alchemical item two levels higher than the higher of the two elixirs’ levels.
When this combination elixir is consumed, both the constituent elixirs take effect. For example, you can combine two elixirs of life to create a combined elixir that heals twice the normal amount, or you can combine a lesser darkvision elixir with a lesser eagle-eye elixir to both gain darkvision and find secret doors.

You issue an order to an animal.
Attempt a Nature check against the animal’s Will DC. The GM might adjust the DC if the animal has a good attitude toward you, you suggest a course of action it was predisposed toward, or you offer it a treat.
You automatically fail if the animal is hostile or unfriendly to you. If the animal is helpful to you, increase your degree of success by one step.
You might be able to Command an Animal more easily with a feat like Ride.
Most animals know the Leap, Seek, Stand, Stride, and Strike basic actions.
If an animal knows an activity, such as a horse’s Gallop, you can Command the Animal to perform the activity, but you must spend as many actions on Command an Animal as the activity’s number of actions.
You can also spend multiple actions to Command the Animal to perform that number of basic actions on its next turn; for instance, you could spend 3 actions to Command an Animal to Stride three times or to Stride twice and then Strike.
Issuing commands to an animal doesn’t always go smoothly. An animal is an independent creature with limited intelligence. Most animals understand only the simplest instructions, so you might be able to instruct your animal to move to a certain square but not dictate a specific path to get there, or command it to attack a certain creature but not to make its attack nonlethal. The GM decides the specifics of the action your animal uses.
The animal does what you commanded as soon as it can, usually as its first action on its next turn. If you successfully commanded it multiple times, it does what you said in order. It forgets all commands beyond what it can accomplish on its turn.
If multiple people command the same animal, the GM determines how the animal reacts. The GM might also make the DC higher if someone has already tried to Command the Animal that round.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | The animal does as you command on its next turn. |
| Failure | The animal is hesitant or resistant, and it does nothing. |
| Critical Failure | The animal misbehaves or misunderstands, and it takes some other action determined by the GM. |
"It does nothing" on a failure means that it does nothing in response to your commands, not that it does nothing at all. You cannot cause a hostile animal to stop attacking and stand still by failing to Command it.

You hide a small object on your person (such as a weapon of light Bulk).
When you try to sneak a concealed object past someone who might notice it, the GM rolls your Stealth check and compares it to this passive observer’s Perception DC.
Once the GM rolls your check for a concealed object, that same result is used no matter how many passive observers you try to sneak it past.
If a creature is specifically searching you for an item, it can attempt a Perception check against your Stealth DC (finding the object on success).
You can also conceal an object somewhere other than your person, such as among undergrowth or in a secret compartment within a piece of furniture. In this case, characters Seeking in an area compare their Perception check results to your Stealth DC to determine whether they find the object.

Hiding your gestures and incantations within other speech and movement, you attempt to conceal the fact that you are Casting a Spell.
If the next action you use is to Cast a Spell, attempt a Stealth check against one or more observers’ Perception DCs; if the spell has verbal components, you must also attempt a Deception check against the observers’ Perception DC.
If you succeed at your check (or checks) against an observer’s DC, that observer doesn’t notice you’re casting a spell, even though material, somatic, and verbal components are usually noticeable and spells normally have sensory manifestations that would make spellcasting obvious to those nearby.
This ability hides only the spell’s spellcasting actions and manifestations, not its effects, so an observer might still see a ray streak out from you or see you vanish into thin air.

While you are concealed from a creature, such as in a thick fog, you are difficult for that creature to see. You can still be observed, but you’re tougher to target.
A creature that you’re concealed from must succeed at a DC 5 flat check when targeting you with an attack, spell, or other effect. If the check fails, the attack, spell, or effect doesn’t affect you.
Area effects aren’t subject to this flat check.
If a creature with vision as their only precise sense is Dazzled, all creatures are concealed to them.
Creatures with Low-Light Vision ignore concealment from being in dim light.

Rather than hide an object somewhere the inspectors won’t search, you’re skilled at keeping the object on the move so it’s never where they look.
When you Conceal an Object of light Bulk or less, you can use Thievery instead of Stealth for your checks and for the DC of an active searcher’s Perception check.
You roll the check only once, but you must continue to use actions to Conceal an Object throughout the process.

A cone shoots out from you in a quarter circle on the grid.
When you aim a cone, the first square of that cone must share an edge with your space if you’re aiming orthogonally, or it must touch a corner of your space if you’re aiming diagonally.
If you’re Large or larger, the first square can run along the edge of any square of your space.
You can’t aim a cone so that it overlaps your space.
The cone extends out for a number of feet, widening as it goes, as shown in the Areas diagram.
For instance, when a green dragon uses its breath weapon, it breathes a cone of poisonous gas that originates at the edge of one square of its space and affects a quarter-circle area 30 feet on each edge.
If you make a cone originate from someone or something else, follow these same rules, with the first square of the cone using an edge or corner of that creature or object’s space instead of your own.
Measure the distance to the target in the standard way, with every other diagonal square counted as 10'.
This has the effect that cones become less wide at the very end of their range.
If the cone originates at the corner of a square, targets not in the quadrant of the area bounded by that corner cannot be affected.
If the cone originates at the edge of a square, targets only reached by moving parallel to that edge more often than away from it cannot be affected.
A cone's width at a given point is not equal to the distance of the centre from the point of origin. (That's that other game.)

Conjuration spells often have the trait, and the creatures summoned by conjuration spells have the trait.
Prerequisites Expert in Society, Courtly Graces.
You have social connections you can leverage to trade favors or meet important people.
When you’re in an area with connections (typically a settlement where you’ve spent downtime building connections, or possibly another area in the same nation), you can attempt a Society check to arrange a meeting with an important political figure or ask for a favor in exchange for a later favor of your contact’s choice.
The GM decides the DC based on the difficulty of the favor and the figure’s prominence.

A construct is an artificial creature empowered by a force other than necromancy.
Constructs are often ; they are immune to bleed damage, effects, , , , nonlethal attacks, , and the Doomed, Drained, Fatigued, Paralyzed, Sickened, and Unconscious conditions; and they may have Hardness based on the materials used to construct their bodies.
Constructs are not living creatures, nor are they .
When reduced to 0 Hit Points, a construct creature is destroyed.
Frequency Once per day.
You have learned rites or meditations that enable you to perceive minor, invisible spirits within a place.
Choose Nature, Occultism, or Religion when you select this feat.
Nature allows you to contact the spirits of nature that form leshies, who are born of pure life essence rather than spiritual energy and can answer questions about natural features like the location of nearby water or plant life.
Religion reveals the presence of angelic, demonic, or other spirits in service to divine beings, who provide information about sources of powerful positive or negative energy, sacred or profane influences, or the presence of undead.
Occultism allows you to contact lingering spirits, psychic echoes of the departed dead, and spirits from beyond reality, who tell you about things like strange auras, effects, or the presence of unnatural occult beings.
Spend 10 minutes and attempt a check to Recall Knowledge with the chosen skill; the DC is determined by the GM (usually a very high DC for the level of the highest-level creature you might encounter in the area).
If you’re legendary in the chosen skill, you can use this feat once per hour, instead of only once per day, but you can’t use it again on any area that overlaps a previous area.
| Critical Success | The spirits reveal themselves to you and have a Helpful attitude toward you. Only you can perceive these spirits. They answer three simple questions about the environment within 100 feet of you, depending on the skill you chose and thus the type of spirits you contact. Their answers are almost always a single word, and their knowledge is limited to within their area of interest. |
|---|---|
| Success | As with a critical success, but the spirits are Indifferent to you and answer only one question. |
| Failure | You are unable to contact the spirits of this place. |
| Critical Failure | You contact one or more malevolent spirits. They are Hostile toward you, though they may not immediately appear so. They answer up to three questions but give you information that is harmful to you in some way, as determined by the GM. |
Special You can select this feat multiple times, each time picking a different skill in which you have the master proficiency rank. You can use this feat with each skill once per day (or once per hour, if you’re legendary).

You prepare a spell that will trigger later.
While casting contingency, you also cast another spell of 4th level or lower with a casting time of no more than 3 actions.
This companion spell must be one that can affect you.
You must make any decisions for the spell when you cast contingency, such as choosing a damage type for Resist Energy.
During the casting, choose a Trigger under which the spell will be cast, using the same restrictions as for the trigger of a Ready action.
Once contingency is cast, you can cause the companion spell to come into effect as a reaction with that trigger.
It affects only you, even if it would affect more creatures.
If you define complicated conditions, as determined by the GM, the trigger might fail.
If you cast contingency again, the newer casting supersedes the older.

Some effects try to counteract spells, afflictions, conditions, or other effects. Counteract checks compare the power of two forces and determine which defeats the other.
Successfully counteracting an effect ends it unless noted otherwise.
When attempting a counteract check, add the relevant skill modifier or other appropriate modifier to your check against the target’s DC.
For spells that are used to counteract, the counteract check modifier is your spellcasting ability modifier plus your spellcasting proficiency bonus, plus any bonuses and penalties that specifically apply to counteract checks.
What you can counteract depends on the check result, the target’s counteract level, and the level of the effect you are counteracting with.

This monster can form a coven with two or more other creatures who also have the coven ability.
This involves performing an 8-hour ceremony with all prospective coven members.
After the coven is formed, each of its members gains Elite adjustments, adjusting their levels accordingly.
Coven members can sense other members’ locations and conditions by spending a single action, which has the Concentrate trait, and can sense what another coven member is sensing as a two-action activity, which has the concentrate trait as well.
Covens also grant spells and rituals to their members, but these can be cast only in cooperation between three coven members who are all within 30 feet of one another. A coven member can contribute to a coven spell with a single-action spellcasting activity that has a single verbal component. If two coven members have contributed these actions within the last round, a third member can cast a coven spell on her turn by spending the normal spellcasting actions.
A coven can cast its coven spells an unlimited number of times but can cast only one coven spell each round.
All covens grant the 8th-level Baleful Polymorph spell and all the following spells, which the coven can cast at any level up to 5th: Augury, Charm, Clairaudience, Clairvoyance, Dream Message, Illusory Disguise, Illusory Scene, Prying Eye, and Talking Corpse.
A coven can also cast the Control Weather ritual with a DC of 23 instead of the standard DC.
Individual creatures with the coven ability also grant additional spells to any coven they join.
If a coven member leaving the coven or the death of a coven member brings the coven below three members, the remaining members keep their elite adjustments for 24 hours, but without enough members to contribute the necessary actions, they can’t cast coven spells.

When you’re behind an obstacle that could block weapons, guard you against explosions, and make you harder to detect, you’re behind cover.
Standard cover gives you a +2 circumstance bonus to AC, to Reflex saves against area effects, and to Stealth checks to Hide, Sneak, or otherwise avoid detection.
You can increase this to Greater Cover using the Take Cover basic action, increasing the circumstance bonus to +4.
If cover is especially light, typically when it’s provided by a creature, you have lesser cover, which grants a +1 circumstance bonus to AC.
A creature with standard cover or greater cover can attempt to use Stealth to Hide, but lesser cover isn’t sufficient.
Cover is relative, so you might simultaneously have cover against one creature and not another.
Cover applies only if your path to the target is partially blocked. If a creature is entirely behind a wall or the like, you don’t have Line of Effect and typically can’t target it at all.
Usually, the GM can quickly decide whether your target has cover. If you’re uncertain or need to be more precise, draw a line from the center of your space to the center of the target’s space. If that line passes through any terrain or object that would block the effect, the target has standard cover (or greater cover if the obstruction is extreme or the target has Taken Cover). If the line passes through a creature instead, the target has lesser cover.
When measuring cover against an area effect, draw the line from the effect’s point of origin to the center of the creature’s space.
If a creature between you and a target is two or more sizes larger than both you and your target, that creature’s space blocks the effect enough to provide standard cover instead of lesser cover. The GM might determine that a creature doesn’t gain cover from terrain that it’s significantly larger than. For example, a Huge dragon probably wouldn’t receive any benefit from being behind a 1-foot-wide pillar.
Your GM might allow you to overcome your target’s cover in some situations. If you’re right next to an arrow slit, you can shoot without penalty, but you have greater cover against someone shooting back at you from far away. Your GM might let you reduce or negate cover by leaning around a corner to shoot or the like. This usually takes an action to set up, and the GM might measure cover from an edge or corner of your space instead of your center.
| Mounted Combat | Cover | You have lesser cover if your mount would be in the way of an attack. |

You cover your tracks, moving up to half your travel Speed.
You don't need to attempt a Survival check to cover your tracks, but anyone tracking you must succeed at a Survival check against your Survival DC if it is higher than the normal DC to Track.
In some cases, you might Cover Tracks in an encounter. In this case, Cover Tracks is a single action and doesn’t have the exploration trait.

You shape a cabin 20 feet on each side and 10 feet high.
This cabin has the trait and the same restrictions as magic items that create structures.
The walls of the hut are simple and wooden, with small, square glass windows, and it has one wooden door. It doesn’t include its own lock, but it has a fastener to which a lock can be applied. The interior contains three cots, one chamber pot, and a small fireplace holding a magical fire.
The interior is lit with a small magical light that you can light or extinguish at will using a single action, which has the trait.
The climate inside the hut is comfortable and allows creatures inside it to withstand most hostile weather conditions, but incredible heat or cold, powerful storms, and winds of hurricane force or greater destroy the hut.
Other creatures can freely enter and exit the hut without damaging it, but if you exit the hut, the spell ends.
You can Dismiss the spell.

You can make an item from raw materials.
You need the Alchemical Crafting skill feat to create alchemical items, the Magical Crafting skill feat to create magic items, and the Snare Crafting feat to create snares.
You can Craft items with the consumable trait in batches, making up to four of the same item at once with a single check. This requires you to include the raw materials for all the items in the batch at the start, and you must complete the batch all at once.
You also Craft non-magical ammunition in batches, using the quantity listed in Table 6–8: Ranged Weapons (typically 10).
To Craft an item, you must meet the following requirements:
You must spend 4 days at work, at which point you attempt a Crafting check. The GM determines the DC to Craft the item based on its level, rarity, and other circumstances.
If your attempt to create the item is successful, you expend the raw materials you supplied.
You can pay the remaining portion of the item’s Price in materials to complete the item immediately, or you can spend additional downtime days working on it.
For each additional day you spend, reduce the value of the materials you need to expend to complete the item. This amount is determined using Table 4–2: Income Earned (page 236), based on your proficiency rank in Crafting and using your own level instead of a task level.
After any of these downtime days, you can complete the item by spending the remaining portion of its Price in materials.
If the downtime days you spend are interrupted, you can return to finish the item later, continuing where you left off.
| Critical Success | Your attempt is successful. Each additional day spent Crafting reduces the materials needed to complete the item by an amount based on your level + 1 and your proficiency rank in Crafting. |
|---|---|
| Success | Your attempt is successful. Each additional day spent Crafting reduces the materials needed to complete the item by an amount based on your level and your proficiency rank. |
| Failure | You fail to complete the item. You can salvage the raw materials you supplied for their full value. If you want to try again, you must start over. |
| Critical Failure | You fail to complete the item. You ruin 10% of the raw materials you supplied, but you can salvage the rest. If you want to try again, you must start over. |

Prerequisites Legendary in Crafting.
You can find ways to craft just about anything, despite restrictions.
As long as you have the appropriate Crafting skill feat (such as Magical Crafting for magic items) and meet the item’s level and proficiency requirement, you ignore just about any other requirement, such as being of a specific ancestry or providing spells.
The only exceptions are requirements that add to the item’s cost, including castings of spells that themselves have a cost, and requirements of special items such as the philosopher’s stone that have exclusive means of access and Crafting.
The GM decides whether you can ignore a requirement.

With a gesture, a trick, or some distracting words, you can create a diversion that draws creatures’ attention elsewhere.
If you use a gesture or trick, this action gains the Manipulate trait. If you use distracting words, it gains the Auditory and Linguistic traits.
Attempt a single Deception check and compare it to the Perception DCs of the creatures whose attention you’re trying to divert.
Whether or not you succeed, creatures you attempt to divert gain a +4 circumstance bonus to their Perception DCs against your attempts to Create a Diversion for 1 minute.

| Success | You become Hidden to each creature whose Perception DC is less than or equal to your result. The hidden condition allows you to Sneak away. This lasts until the end of your turn or until you do anything except Step or use the Hide or the Sneak action of the Stealth skill. If you Strike a creature, the creature remains Flat‑Footed against that attack, and you then become Observed. If you do anything else, you become observed just before you act unless the GM determines otherwise. |

After 1 day, if no one has eaten the food, it decays and becomes inedible.

You create a forged document, usually over the course of a day or a week.
You must have the proper writing material to create a forgery.
When you Create a Forgery, the GM rolls a secret DC 20 Society check. If you succeed, the forgery is of good enough quality that passive observers can’t notice the fake. Only those who carefully examine the document and attempt a Perception or Society check against your Society DC can do so.
If your check result was below 20, the forgery has some obvious signs of being a fake, so the GM compares your result to each passive observer’s Perception DC or Society DC, whichever is higher, using the success or failure results below.
Once the GM rolls your check for a document, that same result is used against all passive observers’ DCs no matter how many creatures passively observe that document.
An observer who was fooled on a passive glance can still choose to closely scrutinize the documents on the lookout for a forgery, using different techniques and analysis methods beyond the surface elements you successfully forged with your original check. In that case, the observer can attempt a Perception or Society check against your Society DC. If they succeed, they know your document is a forgery.
If the document’s handwriting doesn’t need to be specific to a person, you need only to have seen a similar document before, and you gain up to a +4 circumstance bonus to your check, as well as to your DC (the GM determines the bonus).
To forge a specific person’s handwriting, you need a sample of that person’s handwriting.

You have dealings with a variety of unsavory characters, which you can leverage to trade favors or meet powerful people.
When you’re in an area where you have connections (typically a settlement where you’ve spent downtime building connections or possibly another area in the same nation), you can attempt a Society check to arrange a meeting with an important criminal, such as a thieves’ guild leader, or ask for a favor in exchange for a later favor of your contact’s choice.
The GM decides the DC based on the difficulty of the favor and the figure’s prominence.

A creature or object within darkness is Hidden or Undetected unless the seeker has Darkvision or a precise sense other than vision.
A creature without darkvision or another means of perceiving in darkness has the Blinded condition while in darkness, though it might be able to see illuminated areas beyond the darkness.
If a creature can see into an illuminated area, it can observe creatures within that illuminated area normally.
After being in darkness, sudden exposure to bright light might make you Dazzled for a short time, as determined by the GM.
You operate in the darkness and take away the light.

You create a shroud of Darkness that prevents light from penetrating or emanating within the area.
Light does not enter the area and any non-magical light sources, such as a Torch or Lantern, do not emanate any light while inside the area, even if their light radius would extend beyond the darkness.
This also suppresses magical light of your darkness spell’s level or lower. Light can’t pass through, so creatures in the area can’t see outside. From outside, it appears as a globe of pure darkness.

Your eyes are overstimulated.
If vision is your only precise sense, all creatures and objects are Concealed from you.
On a critical hit, the weapon adds a weapon damage die of the listed size.
Roll this after doubling the weapon’s damage.
This increases to two dice if the weapon has a Greater Striking rune and three dice if the weapon has a Major Striking rune.
For instance, a rapier with a greater striking rune deals 2d8 extra piercing damage on a critical hit.
An ability that changes the size of the weapon’s normal damage dice doesn’t change the size of its deadly die.
Your poisons are devastatingly potent.
When you apply a simple poison with Poison Weapon, the poison deals 4d4 poison damage instead of 1d4 poison damage.

You loop a thought process in the target’s mind, forcing it to repeat the same actions over again.
The target must attempt a Will save. This is an Incapacitation effect, so targets of more than twice the spell's level promote their save by one category.
If the target fails, whatever actions the target uses on its next turn, it must repeat on its following turn. The actions must be repeated in the same order and as close to the same specifics as possible. For example, if the target makes an attack, it must repeat the attack against the same creature, if possible, and if the target moves, it must move the same distance and direction, if possible, on its next turn.
If the target can’t repeat an action, such as Casting a Spell that has been exhausted or needing to target a creature that has died, it can act as it chooses for that action but becomes Stupefied 1 until the end of its turn.

Trigger: Your turn begins.
You wait for the right moment to act.
The rest of your turn doesn’t happen yet. Instead, you’re removed from the initiative order.
You can return to the initiative order as a free action triggered by the end of any other creature’s turn.
This permanently changes your initiative to the new position.
You can’t use Reactions until you return to the initiative order.
If you Delay an entire round without returning to the initiative order, the actions from the Delayed turn are lost, your initiative doesn’t change, and your next turn occurs at your original position in the initiative order.
When you Delay, any Persistent Damage or other negative effects that normally occur at the start or end of your turn occur immediately when you use the Delay action. Any beneficial effects that would end at any point during your turn also end. The GM might determine that other effects end when you Delay as well.
Essentially, you can’t Delay to avoid negative consequences that would happen on your turn or to extend beneficial effects that would end on your turn.

You make the target overconfident, leading it to ascribe failure to external factors.
If the target fails at an attack roll or skill check, it takes a –1 status penalty to attack rolls and skill checks until the end of its turn (or the end of its next turn, if it attempted the roll outside its turn).
If the creature fails a second time while taking this penalty, the penalty increases to –2.
The duration depends on the target’s Will save.
After attempting its save, the creature becomes temporarily immune for 24 hours.

You can rig your bombs to inanimate objects in order to cause destruction to the surrounding area.
As an activity that takes 1 minute, you attach between one and four bombs to an inanimate object within your reach, such as a chest, door, wall, or column.
This creates a hazard in one square occupied by or adjacent to the inanimate object, and the hazard’s Stealth DC to detect it and Thievery DC to disable it are equal to your class DC.
The hazard has the Fire in the Hole reaction, which you can also trigger as a single action so long as you are within 30 feet of the hazard.
The hazard retains its potency until it’s triggered, until the inanimate object moves from its space, or until you make your next daily preparations, whichever comes first.

You send out a pulse that registers the presence of magic.
You receive no information beyond the presence or absence of magic.
You can choose to ignore magic you’re fully aware of, such as the magic items and ongoing spells of you and your allies.
You detect magic only if that magic’s effect has a lower level than the level of your detect magic spell. However, items that have an illusion aura but aren’t deceptive in appearance (such as an invisibility potion) typically are detected normally.
When used as an exploration activity, you cast Detect Magic at regular intervals.
You move at half your travel speed or slower.
You have no chance of accidentally overlooking a magic aura at a travel speed up to 300 feet per minute, but must be traveling no more than 150 feet per minute to detect magic auras before the party moves into them.
This activity doesn’t enable characters to automatically find every single magical aura or object during travel. Hazards that require a minimum proficiency can’t be found with detect magic, nor can illusions of equal or higher level than the spell.
Heightened (3rd) You learn the school of magic for the highest level effect within range that the spell detects. If multiple effects are equally strong, the GM determines which you learn.
Heightened (4th) As 3rd level, but you also pinpoint the source of the highest-level magic. Like for an imprecise sense, you don’t learn the exact location, but can narrow down the source to within a 5-foot cube (or the nearest if larger than that).

Difficult terrain is any terrain that impedes your movement, ranging from particularly rough or unstable surfaces to thick ground cover and countless other impediments.
Moving into a square of difficult terrain (or moving 5 feet into or within an area of difficult terrain, if you’re not using a grid) costs an extra 5 feet of movement.
Moving into a square of greater difficult terrain instead costs 10 additional feet of movement.
This additional cost is not increased when moving diagonally.
You can’t Step into difficult terrain unless you have Feather Step.
Movement you make while you are jumping ignores the terrain you’re jumping over. Some abilities (such as flight or being incorporeal) allow you to avoid the movement reduction from some types of difficult terrain.
Certain other abilities let you ignore difficult terrain on foot; such an ability also allows you to move through greater difficult terrain at the normal movement cost as for difficult terrain, though it wouldn’t let you ignore greater difficult terrain unless the ability specifies otherwise.

In addition, you also kick up a cloud of grit in a direction of your choice. The cloud extinguishes small, unattended, non-magical fires and helps smother the flames on burning creatures located within the cone; creatures in this cone that are taking persistent damage can immediately attempt an additional flat DC 15 check to end the persistent damage.

You can lob bombs with great force and a precise trajectory to angle the splash in a cone spraying in a single direction.
When throwing an alchemical bomb with the trait, instead of splashing all squares adjacent to the target, you can treat the target’s space as the first affected square of a 15-foot Cone directed away from you, potentially allowing you to avoid allies and splash deeper into enemy lines.
If the target takes up more than a single square, the target’s square closest to you is the first affected square of the cone.

Requirements Some devices require you to use Thieves’ Tools when disabling them.
This action allows you to disarm a trap or another complex device.
Often, a device requires numerous successes before becoming disabled, depending on its construction and complexity.
Thieves’ tools are helpful and sometimes even required to Disable a Device, as determined by the GM, and sometimes a device requires a higher proficiency rank in Thievery to disable it.
Your Thievery check result determines how much progress you make. The DC is determined by the device being disabled.
| Critical Success | You disable the device, or you achieve two successes toward disabling a complex device. You leave no trace of your tampering, and you can rearm the device later, if that type of device can be rearmed. |

You shroud a creature from others’ senses.
The target becomes Undetected, not just to sight but to all senses, allowing the target to count as Invisible no matter what precise and imprecise senses an observer might have.
It’s still possible for a creature to find the target by Seeking, looking for disturbed dust, hearing gaps in the sound spectrum, or finding some other way to discover the presence of an otherwise-undetectable creature.

Requirements You have at least one hand free. The target can’t be more than one size larger than you.
You try to knock something out of an opponent’s grasp.
Attempt an Athletics check against the opponent’s Reflex DC.
| Critical Success | You knock the item out of the opponent’s grasp. It falls to the ground in the opponent’s space. |
|---|---|
| Success | You weaken your opponent’s grasp on the item. Until the start of that creature’s turn, attempts to Disarm the opponent of that item gain a +2 circumstance bonus, and the target takes a –2 circumstance penalty to attacks with the item or other checks requiring a firm grasp on the item. |
| Failure | |
| Critical Failure | You lose your balance and become Flat-Footed until the start of your next turn. |
A weapon with the Disarm trait can be used to Disarm with the Athletics skill even if you don’t have a free hand.
This uses the weapon’s reach (if different from your own) and adds the weapon’s item bonus to attack rolls (if any) as an item bonus to the Athletics check.
If you critically fail a check to Disarm using the weapon, you can drop the weapon to take the effects of a failure instead of a critical failure.
On a critical success, you still need a free hand if you want to take the item.

You touch an object, and it immediately disassembles itself into its component pieces.
The spell fails if the target lacks component pieces (such as a statue carved from one block of stone), and using it on a dangerous object like a snare or trap typically triggers it.
The object gains the Broken condition, and the component pieces become small enough to be hidden under normal clothing and armor.
You can Dismiss the spell.
When the spell ends, the object reassembles itself into its original form, appearing in your hand or hands if you have them free, or on the ground in front of you otherwise.
Once reassembled, the object loses the broken condition and its Hit Points return to the value the object had when you Cast the Spell.

Divinations allow you to learn the secrets of the present, past, and future. They bestow good fortune, grant you the ability to perceive remote locations, and reveal secret knowledge.
Divinations often have the trait if they find something, the trait if they grant you insight about what might happen in the future, the trait if they show things as they truly are, or the trait if they let you perceive another location.

The power of the divine is steeped in faith, the unseen, and belief in a power source from beyond the Material Plane.
Clerics are the most iconic divine spellcasters, beseeching the gods to grant them their magic. Divine Sorcerers can use the blood of their celestial or fiendish ancestors as a divine conduit, and Champions call upon their gods to grant them martial prowess through divine guidance.
Divine spells are identified using Religion.

Leathery wings sprout from your back, giving you a fly Speed of 60 feet or your Speed, whichever is faster.

You close your hand and pull life energy from another creature into yourself.

When a creature successfully drains you of blood or life force, you become less healthy.
Drained always includes a value. You take a status penalty equal to your drained value on Constitution-based checks, such as Fortitude saves.
You also lose a number of Hit Points equal to your level (minimum 1) times the drained value, and your maximum Hit Points are reduced by the same amount. For example, if you’re hit by an effect that inflicts drained 3 and you’re a 3rd-level character, you lose 9 Hit Points and reduce your maximum Hit Points by 9.
Losing these Hit Points doesn’t count as taking damage.
Each time you get a full night’s rest, your drained value decreases by 1. If you have the Fast Recovery Feat, it instead decreases by 2. This increases your maximum Hit Points, but you don’t immediately recover the lost Hit Points

You send a message to your target’s dream.
The message is one-way, up to 1 minute of speech (roughly 150 words).

Trigger A creature within range is hit by an attack from an enemy.
The target appears to fall down dead, though it actually turns Invisible.
Its illusory corpse remains where it fell, complete with a believable fatal wound. This illusion looks and feels like a dead body.
If the target’s death seems absurd—for instance, a barbarian at full health appears to be slain by 2 damage—the GM can grant the attacker an immediate Perception check to disbelieve the illusion.
If the target uses Hostile Actions, the spell ends. This ends the entire spell, so the illusory corpse disappears too.

You can hold your breath for a number of rounds equal to 5 + your Constitution modifier.

You also lose 1 round worth of air each time you are critically hit or critically fail a save against a damaging effect.
If you speak (including casting spells with components or activating items with components) you lose all remaining air.
When you run out of air, you fall unconscious and start Suffocating.

You try to create a temporary duplicate of an enemy to fight on your behalf.
The target can attempt a Fortitude save to disrupt the spell.
The duplicate appears in an unoccupied space adjacent to the target and has the target’s attack modifier, AC, saving throw modifiers, Perception, and skill modifiers, but it has only 70 Hit Points and lacks the target’s special abilities, including immunities, resistances, and weaknesses.
It has no magic items except weapon potency runes.
The duplicate gains the trait, and it can only Stride and Strike.
Its Strikes deal the target’s normal damage but don’t apply added effects, since it doesn’t have special abilities.
The spell automatically ends if the duplicate’s Hit Points drop to 0.
The duplicate attacks your enemies to the best of its abilities. You can also try to give it additional instructions; when you Sustain the Spell, you can also Command a Minion as part of your action, but the GM determines whether the duplicate follows your command. This may be an error as there is no "Command a Minion" action.
The duplicate is unstable, so each turn after it takes its actions, it loses 4d6 Hit Points. It’s not a living creature, and it can never regain its lost Hit Points in any way.
| Critical Success | You fail to create a duplicate. |

You use one of your skills to make money during downtime.
The GM assigns a task level representing the most lucrative job available. You can search for lower-level tasks, with the GM determining whether you find any. Sometimes you can attempt to find better work than the initial offerings, though this takes time and requires using the Diplomacy skill to Gather Information, doing some research, or socializing.
When you take on a job, the GM secretly sets the DC of your skill check. After your first day of work, you roll to determine your earnings. You gain an amount of income based on your result, the task’s level, and your proficiency rank.
You can continue working at the task on subsequent days without needing to roll again. For each day you spend after the first, you earn the same amount as the first day, up until the task’s completion.
The GM determines how long you can work at the task. Most tasks last a week or two, though some can take months or even years.
Using Crafting, you can work at producing common items for the market. It’s usually easy to find work making basic items whose level is 1 or 2 below your settlement’s level. Higher-level tasks represent special commissions, which might require you to Craft a specific item using the Craft downtime activity and sell it to a buyer at full price. These opportunities don’t occur as often and might have special requirements—or serious consequences if you disappoint a prominent client.
You can apply the practical benefits of one of your Lore specialties during downtime by practicing your trade. This is most effective for Lore specialties such as business, law, or sailing, where there’s high demand for workers. The GM might increase the DC or determine only low-level tasks are available if you’re attempting to use an obscure Lore skill to Earn Income. You might also need specialized tools to accept a job, like mining tools to work in a mine or a merchant’s scale to buy and sell valuables in a market.
You can use Performance to perform for an audience to make money. The available audiences determine the level of your task, since more discerning audiences are harder to impress but provide a bigger payout. The GM determines the task level based on the audiences available. Performing for a typical audience of commoners on the street is a level 0 task, but a performance for a group of artisans with more refined tastes might be a 2nd- or 3rd-level task, and ones for merchants, nobility, and royalty are increasingly higher level. Your degree of success determines whether you moved your audience and whether you were rewarded with applause or rotten fruit.
When Earning Income, you might be able to spend days of downtime to prepare for your task, which adjusts the DC of the skill check. This might involve rehearsing a play, studying a topic, and so on. The GM determines how long preparation takes and how much the DC changes. This is most useful when you’re trying a task that’s higher level than you; otherwise such tasks have an increased DC!
When a task you’re doing is complete, or if you stop in the middle of one, you normally have to find a new task if you want to keep Earning Income. For instance, if you quit your job working at the docks, you’ll need to find another place of employment instead of picking up where you left off. This usually takes 1 day or more of downtime looking for leads on new jobs.
However, you might pause a task due to an adventure or event that wouldn’t prevent you from returning to the old job later. The GM might decide that you can pick up where you left off, assuming the task hasn’t been completed by others in your absence. Whether you roll a new skill check when you resume is also up to the GM. Generally speaking, if you had a good initial roll and want to keep it, you can, but if you had a bad initial roll, you can’t try for a better one by pausing to do something else. If your statistics changed during the break—usually because you leveled up while adventuring—you can attempt a new check.

Thanks to the time you’ve spent studying and experimenting, you know how to scale your formulas into larger batches that don’t require any additional attention.
When spending downtime to Craft alchemical items, you can produce twice as many alchemical items in a single batch without spending additional preparatory time. For instance, if you are creating elixirs of life, you can craft up to eight elixirs in a single batch using downtime, rather than four.
This does not reduce the amount of alchemical reagents required or other ingredients needed to craft each item, nor does it increase your rate of progress for days past the base downtime spent.
This also does not change the number of items you can create in a batch using Advanced Alchemy.

An emanation issues forth from each side of your space, extending out to a specified number of feet in all directions.
For instance, the bless spell’s emanation radiates 5 or more feet outward from the caster.
Because the sides of a target’s space are used as the starting point for the emanation, an emanation from a Large or larger creature affects a greater overall area than that of a Medium or smaller creature.
An emanation effect includes the target of the emanation, but the creature creating the effect can exclude the target if desired.
If an emanation effect has a duration, it moves with the caster unless stated otherwise.

The monster Strides up to double its Speed and can move through the spaces of any creatures in its path.
Any creature of the monster’s size or smaller whose space the monster moves through can attempt a Reflex save with the listed DC to avoid being engulfed. A creature unable to act automatically critically fails this save.
If a creature succeeds at its save, it can choose to be either pushed aside (out of the monster’s path) or pushed in front of the monster to the end of the monster’s movement.
The monster can attempt to Engulf the same creature only once in a single use of Engulf.
The monster can contain as many creatures as can fit in its space.
A creature that fails its save is pulled into the monster’s body. It is Grabbed, is Slowed 1, and has to hold its breath or start suffocating.
The creature takes the listed amount of damage when first engulfed and at the end of each of its turns while it’s engulfed.
An engulfed creature can get free by Escaping against the listed escape DC.
An engulfed creature can attack the monster engulfing it, but only with unarmed attacks or with weapons of light Bulk or less. The engulfing creature is Flat-Footed against the attack.
If the monster takes piercing or slashing damage equaling or exceeding the listed Rupture value from a single attack or spell, the engulfed creature cuts itself free.
A creature that gets free by either method can immediately breathe and exits the swallowing monster’s space.
If the monster dies, all creatures it has engulfed are automatically released as the monster’s form loses cohesion.

Prerequisites Master in Perception.
You have a system that lets you search at great speed, finding details and secrets twice as quickly as others can.
When Searching, you take half as long as usual to Search a given area.
This means that while exploring, you double the Speed you can move while ensuring you’ve Searched an area before walking into it (up to half your Speed).
If you’re legendary in Perception, you instead Search areas four times as quickly.

You carefully safeguard your professional endeavors to prevent disaster.
When you use Lore to Earn Income, if you roll a critical failure, you instead get a failure.
If you’re an expert in Lore, you gain twice as much income from a failed check to Earn Income, unless it was originally a critical failure.

Prerequisites Trained in Stealth.
You often smuggle things past the authorities.
When the GM rolls your Stealth check to see if a passive observer notices a small item you have concealed, the GM uses the number rolled or 10—whichever is higher—as the result of your die roll, adding it to your Stealth modifier to determine your Stealth check result.
If you’re a master in Stealth, the GM uses the number rolled or 15, and if you’re legendary in Stealth, you automatically succeed at hiding a small concealed item from passive observers.
This provides no benefits when a creature attempts a Perception check while actively searching you for hidden items.
Due to your smuggling skill, you’re more likely to find more lucrative smuggling jobs when using Underworld Lore to Earn Income.

Tracking is second nature to you, and when necessary you can follow a trail without pause.
You can Track while moving at full Speed by taking a –5 penalty to your Survival check. If you’re a master in Survival, you don’t take the –5 penalty. If you’re legendary in Survival, you no longer need to roll a new Survival check every hour when tracking, though you still need to roll whenever there are significant changes in the trail.

You know how to encourage your mount to cover ground quickly.
When calculating your Travel Speed for the day while mounted, you can attempt a Nature check to Command an Animal to increase your mount’s travel speed.
The DC is determined by the GM, but is typically based on the mount’s level or the difficulty of the environment, whichever is harder.
On a success, increase your mount’s travel speed by half.

You’ve learned to subitize, quickly estimating the number of items in a group with relative accuracy at only a glance.
You immediately learn the number of visually similar items in a group you can see (such as coins, books, or people), rounded to the first digit in the total number. For example, you could look at a case of potion vials and learn that it held about 30 vials, but you wouldn’t know that it was exactly 33 vials, how many different types of potions there were, or how many of which type. Similarly, you could look at a pile of 2,805 coins and know that there were about 3,000 coins in all.
You can use this ability only on items that can typically be counted, so you can’t use it on grains of sand or stars in the sky, for example.
In addition, when you attempt to Decipher Writing that is primarily numerical or mathematical, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to your check.

Choose a single statement you want the targets to believe. The fact could be narrow, such as “a dragon is circling overhead and wants to kill me”; wide-reaching, such as “all humanoids are disguised abominations”; or conceptual, such as “if I don’t live a kinder life, I’ll be punished in the afterlife.”
The targets’ experiences color how they react to this “truth” and how their behavior changes. If the statement changes what they perceive, they treat the change as a sudden revelation.
The effect of the spell depends on the targets’ Will saves.
If a target is already subject to fabricated truth, your spell tries to Counteract it. If the counteract check fails, the outcome of the target’s saving throw can’t be worse than a success.
Incapacitation effect: All targets of more than twice the spell level use the result one better than the save they rolled.

When you fall more than 5 feet, you take bludgeoning damage equal to half the distance you fell when you land.
Treat falls longer than 1,500 feet as though they were 1,500 feet (750 damage).
If you take any damage from a fall, you land Prone.
You fall about 500 feet in the first round of falling and about 1,500 feet each round thereafter.
You can Grab an Edge as a reaction to reduce the damage from some falls.
In addition, if you fall into water, snow, or another relatively soft substance, you can treat the fall as though it were 20 feet shorter, or 30 feet shorter if you intentionally dove in.
The effective reduction can’t be greater than the depth (so when falling into 10-foot-deep water, you treat the fall as 10 feet shorter).
If you land on a creature, that creature takes half the bludgeoning damage you did, but with a basic DC 15 Reflex save. Landing exactly on a creature after a long fall is almost impossible.
A dropped object takes damage just like a falling creature. If the object lands on a creature, that creature can attempt a Reflex save using the same rules as for a creature falling on a creature.
Hazards and spells that involve falling objects, such as a rock slide, have their own rules about how they interact with creatures and the damage they deal.

You are compelled to focus your attention on something, distracting you from whatever else is going on around you.
You take a –2 status penalty to Perception and skill checks.
You can’t use actions with the Concentrate trait unless they or their intended consequences are related to the subject of your fascination (as determined by the GM). For instance, you might be able to Seek and Recall Knowledge about the subject, but you likely couldn’t cast a spell targeting a different creature.
This condition ends if a creature uses hostile actions against you or any of your allies.
You're fascinated if you're Reading someone's Lips (using the feat).
Prerequisites Trained in Performance.
When you Perform, compare your result to the Will DC of one observer.
If you succeed, the target is Fascinated by you for 1 round.
If the observer is in a situation that demands immediate attention, such as combat, you must critically succeed to fascinate it and the Perform action gains the Incapacitation trait. This means it is impossible to fascinate a creature higher level than you.
You must choose which creature you’re trying to fascinate before you roll your check, and the target is then temporarily immune for 1 hour.
If you’re an expert in Performance, you can fascinate up to four observers; if you’re a master, you can fascinate up to 10 observers; and if you’re legendary, you can fascinate any number of observers at the same time.

When you and an ally are flanking a foe, it has a harder time defending against you.
A creature is Flat-Footed to creatures that are flanking it.
To flank a foe, you and your ally must be on opposites sides or corners of the creature. A line drawn between the center of your space and the center of your ally’s space must pass through opposite sides or opposite corners of the foe’s space.
Additionally, both you and the ally have to be able to act, must be wielding melee weapons or able to make an unarmed attack, can’t be under any effects that prevent you from attacking, and must have the enemy within reach. If you are wielding a weapon, you use your reach with that weapon for this purpose.
| Deny Advantage | Flanking | Prevents flat-footed. |
|---|---|---|
| Foresight | Flanking | Prevents flat-footed when flanked. |
You’re distracted or otherwise unable to focus your full attention on defense.
You take a –2 circumstance penalty to AC.
Some effects give you the flat-footed condition only to certain creatures or against certain attacks. Others— especially conditions—can make you universally flatfooted against everything. If a rule doesn’t specify that the condition applies only to certain circumstances, it applies to all of them; for example, many effects simply say “The target is flat-footed.”
| Aquatic Combat | Flat-Footed | You're flat-footed when underwater if you don't have a swim speed. |

| Amphibious | Aquatic Combat | Removes -2 penalty on bludgeoning and slashing unarmed strikes. |
| Aquatic | Aquatic Combat | Removes -2 penalty for bludgeoning and slashing unarmed Strikes. |

| Flanking | Flat-Footed | You're flat-footed to anyone flanking you. |
| Deny Advantage | Flanking | Prevents flat-footed. |
| Foresight | Flanking | Prevents flat-footed when flanked. |
| Incline | Flat-Footed | You're flat-footed while climbing an incline. |
| Narrow Surface | Flat-Footed | You're flat footed on a narrow surface. |
| Steady Balance | Narrow Surface | Makes you not flat-footed on narrow surfaces. |
| Nature's Enmity | Flat-Footed | Swarming creatures can cause flat-footed. |
| Prone | Flat-Footed | Flat-footed when Prone. |

| Uneven Ground | Flat-Footed | You're flat-footed on uneven ground. |
| Steady Balance | Uneven Ground | Makes you not flat-footed on uneven ground. |
You’re forced to run away due to fear or some other compulsion.
On your turn, you must spend each of your actions trying to escape the source of the fleeing condition as expediently as possible (such as by using move actions to flee, or opening doors barring your escape). The source is usually the effect or caster that gave you the condition, though some effects might define something else as the source.
You move more quickly on foot.
Your Speed increases by 5 feet.

A disk of magical force materializes adjacent to you.
This disk is 2 feet in diameter and follows 5 feet behind you, floating just above the ground.
It holds up to 5 Bulk of objects (though they must be able to fit and balance on its surface).
Any objects atop the disk fall to the ground when the spell ends.
The spell ends if a creature tries to ride atop the disk, if the disk is overloaded, if anyone tries to lift or force the disk higher above the ground, or if you move more than 30 feet away from the disk.

A focus is an object that funnels the magical energy of the spell.
The spell gains the Manipulate trait and requires you to either have a free hand to retrieve the focus listed in the spell or already be holding the focus in your hand.
As part of Casting the Spell, you retrieve the focus (if necessary), manipulate it, and can stow it again if you so choose.
You can't retrieve or stow a Focus component in the same action as Casting the Spell if you're substituting the Focus component for another type of component.
Foci tend to be expensive, and you need to acquire them in advance to Cast the Spell.
Focus spells are a special type of spell attained directly from a branch of study, from a deity, or from another specific source.
You can learn focus spells only through special class features or feats, rather than choosing them from a spell list.
Furthermore, you cast focus spells using a special pool of Focus Points—you can’t prepare a focus spell in a spell slot or use your spell slots to cast focus spells; similarly, you can’t spend your Focus Points to cast spells that aren’t focus spells.
Even some classes that don’t normally grant spellcasting, such as the Champion and Monk, can grant focus spells.
Focus spells are automatically heightened to half your level rounded up, just like cantrips are.
You can’t cast a focus spell if its minimum level is greater than half your level rounded up, even if you somehow gain access to it.
Casting any of your focus spells costs you 1 Focus Point.
You automatically gain a focus pool of 1 Focus Point the first time you gain an ability that gives you a focus spell.
You replenish all the Focus Points in your pool during your daily preparations. You can also use the Refocus activity to pray, study, meditate, or otherwise reattune yourself to the source of your focus magic and regain a Focus Point.
Some abilities allow you to increase the Focus Points in your pool beyond 1. Typically, these are feats that give you a new focus spell and increase the number of points in your pool by 1.
Your focus pool can’t have a capacity beyond 3 Focus Points, even if feats that increase your pool would cause it to exceed this number.
Prerequisites Master in Stealth.
You are adept at foiling creatures’ special senses and cautious enough to safeguard against them at all times.
Whenever you use the Avoid Notice, Hide, or Sneak actions, you are always considered to be taking precautions against special senses.
| Feat Type | Skill |

| Requirement | M |
| Requires |
Choose an ally attempting a recurring skill check while exploring, such as Climbing, or performing a different exploration tactic that requires a skill check (like Avoid Notice).
The ally must be at least an expert in that skill and must be willing to provide assistance.
While Following the Expert, you match their tactic or attempt similar skill checks.
Thanks to your ally’s assistance, you can add your level as a proficiency bonus to the associated skill check, even if you’re untrained.
Additionally, you gain a circumstance bonus to your skill check based on your ally’s proficiency (+2 for expert, +3 for master, and +4 for legendary).
A skilled character can help out less skilled allies who choose to Follow the Expert. This is a good way to help a character with a low Stealth modifier sneak around, get a character with poor Athletics up a steep cliff, and so on.
Usually, a character who is Following the Expert can’t perform other exploration activities or follow more than one person at a time.

Prerequisites Trained in Survival.
While using Survival to Subsist, if you roll any result worse than a success, you get a success.
On a success, you can provide subsistence living for yourself and four additional creatures, and on a critical success, you can take care of twice as many creatures as on a success.
Each time your proficiency rank in Survival increases, double the number of additional creatures you can take care of on a success (to eight if you’re an expert, 16 if you’re a master, or 32 if you’re legendary). You can choose to care for half the number of additional creatures and provide a comfortable living instead of subsistence living.
Multiple smaller creatures or creatures with significantly smaller appetites than a human are counted as a single creature for this feat, and larger creatures or those with significantly greater appetites each count as multiple creatures. The GM determines how much a non-human creature needs to eat.

You create an immobile, invisible prison of sheer force.
The cage is a 20-foot cube made of bands of force, each a half inch thick and a half inch apart, that extend to the Ethereal Plane.
Each creature in the area where you create the cage must attempt a Reflex save. If such a creature fails, it becomes trapped inside the cage. If it succeeds, it’s pushed outside the cage into a space of its choice. If a creature in the area is too big to fit inside the prison, the spell automatically fails.
The cage has AC 10, Hardness 20, and 40 Hit Points, and it’s immune to critical hits and precision damage.
A creature capable of passing through the space between the bars (typically a Tiny creature) can leave; all others are confined within.
Attacks with a weapon too large to fit between the bars can’t pass through the cage, and the bars provide standard Cover even against attacks that can pass through the gaps. Spells and breath weapons can pass through the cage uninhibited.
Force cage is immune to Counteracting effects of its level or lower, but it is automatically destroyed by a Disintegrate spell of any level, or by contact with a Rod of Cancellation or Sphere of Annihilation.

Using your body, a lever, or some other tool, you attempt to forcefully open a door, window, container or heavy gate. With a high enough result, you can even smash through walls.

| Critical Success | You open the door, window, container, or gate and can avoid damaging it in the process. |
|---|---|
| Success | You break the door, window, container, or gate open, and the door, window, container, or gate gains the broken condition. If it’s especially sturdy, the GM might have it take damage but not be broken. |

This weapon becomes more dangerous as you build momentum.
When you attack with it more than once on your turn, the second attack gains a circumstance bonus to damage equal to the number of weapon damage dice, and each subsequent attack gains a circumstance bonus to damage equal to double the number of weapon damage dice.
You understand the principles of forensic medicine, making you better at examining a body to determine the cause of death or injury.
You can perform a forensic examination on a body, as described under Recall Knowledge in the Medicine skill, in half the normal amount of time it would take (to a minimum of 5 minutes).
If you succeed at your check, you can attempt an immediate check to Recall Knowledge to follow up on something you found, with a +2 circumstance bonus. This check is usually related to the cause of injury or death, such as a Crafting check to identify a poison or weapon that was used or an additional Medicine check to identify a specific disease.
If you prefer, you can instead attempt to Recall Knowledge about the type of creature whose body you were examining, using the appropriate skill and gaining the same circumstance bonus.
The circumstance bonus increases to +3 if you have master proficiency in Medicine and +4 if you have legendary proficiency.

You gain a sixth sense that warns you of danger that might befall the target of the spell.
If you choose a creature other than yourself as the target, you create a psychic link through which you can inform the target of danger. This link is a effect.
Due to the amount of information this spell requires you to process, you can’t have more than one foresight spell in effect at a time. Casting foresight again ends the previous foresight.
While foresight is in effect, the target gains a +2 status bonus to Initiative rolls and isn’t Flat-Footed against Undetected creatures or when Flanked.
In addition, you gain the following reaction.
Trigger The target of your Foresight spell defends against a hostile creature or other danger.
If the hostile creature or danger forces the target to roll dice (a saving throw, for example), the target rolls twice and uses the higher result, and this spell gains the trait.
If the hostile creature or danger is rolling against the target (an attack roll or skill check, for example), that hostile creature or danger rolls twice and uses the lower result, and this spell gains the trait.

A fortune effect beneficially alters how you roll your dice.
You can never have more than one fortune effect alter a single roll. If multiple fortune effects would apply, you have to pick which to use.
If a fortune effect and a misfortune effect would apply to the same roll, the two cancel each other out, and you roll normally.

This condition reflects a creature’s disposition toward a particular character, and it affects only creatures that are not player characters.
A creature that is friendly to a character likes that character.
The character can attempt to make a Request of a friendly creature, and the friendly creature is likely to agree to a simple and safe request that doesn’t cost it much to fulfill.
If the character or one of their allies uses hostile actions against the creature, the creature gains a worse attitude condition depending on the severity of the hostile action, as determined by the GM.
You’re gripped by fear and struggle to control your nerves.

Thin hyphae grow from your feet and plunge into the earth, creating a symbiotic fungal network that attaches to plants within 30 feet and connects you to their root systems.
You gain an imprecise Tremorsense allowing you to sense anything directly touching plants within that distance. If you move, the hyphae snap and the spell ends.
Heightened (4th) You can control plants in the area to a small degree, allowing you to make Strikes with tree branches, exposed roots, or similarly solid plants. To do so, you use a Strike action, but you can Strike any creature you can detect with your tremorsense. These are melee spell attacks that deal 2d8 bludgeoning damage plus your spellcasting ability modifier. Unusual plants, such as thorny vines, might deal a different type of damage at the GM’s discretion.
You can’t make any other attacks through these plants, or take any other actions through them, other than these Strikes.
Heightened (6th) As 4th level, but you can use other simple actions through the plants, including having a branch pick an object up or open a door, though more complex actions, such as picking a lock or disabling a trap, remain impossible.

This spell compels local spirits to reenact a violent event of the recent past that you’re aware of and name as you Cast the Spell.
You take the role of the primary victim.
The reenactment plays out the final 9 minutes leading up to the death or injury of the victim and the minute after their death or injury.
The spirits don’t change form, so this doesn’t help determine perpetrators by their look.
Spiritual forms of missing creatures necessary for the event manifest as needed, and missing items appear as shadowy outlines.
Once the scene ends, you take 2d6 damage for each ghostly apparition that participated in the scene (typically equal to the number of creatures involved other than the victim).
Any creature that observed the ghostly recreation, including you, can attempt checks to investigate the event to discover new clues and information.

First impressions are your strong suit.
When you meet someone in a casual or social situation, you can immediately attempt a Diplomacy check to Make an Impression on that creature rather than needing to converse for 1 minute.
You take a –5 penalty to the check.
If you fail or critically fail, you can engage in 1 minute of conversation and attempt a new check at the end of that time rather than accepting the failure or critical failure result.

You are adept at quickly scanning loose papers and carefully discerning the contents of sealed letters without damaging the seal.
You can attempt Society checks to Decipher Writing on a message that is only partially glimpsed, upside down or reversed from your perspective, or even sealed.
However, on a critical failure, the recipient is made aware of your efforts (for instance, you damage the seal or disturb the papers in some way).
When using this feat to decipher sealed letters, your attempt to Decipher Writing gains the trait.
This feat doesn’t prevent witnesses from noticing your efforts, particularly with sealed letters which you must manipulate directly in order to read; you might need to attempt Deception or Stealth checks to avoid being noticed.

Divine insight lets you see things as they truly are.
The GM attempts a Counteract check against each that is at least partially within the area.
Instead of counteracting the illusion, you see through it (for instance, if the check succeeds against an Illusory Disguise spell, you see the creature’s true form but illusory disguise doesn’t end).
The area moves with you for the duration of the spell, and the GM attempts a secret counteract check each time a new illusion is within the area.
Heightened (7th) You can allow everyone to see through illusions you succeed against, not just yourself.

You create an immobile globe around yourself that attempts to Counteract any spell from outside the globe whose area or targets enter into the globe, as if the globe were a Dispel Magic spell 1 level lower than its actual spell level.
If the counteract attempt succeeds, it prevents only the portion of the spell that would have entered the globe (so if the spell also has targets outside the globe, or part of its area is beyond the globe, those targets or that area is affected normally).
You must form the sphere in an unbroken open space, so its edges don’t pass through any creatures or objects, or the spell is lost (though creatures can enter the globe after the spell is cast).

You craft a trap by binding a hostile spell into a symbol.
While Casting this Spell, you also Cast a Spell of a lower spell level to store in the glyph.
The stored spell must take 3 actions or fewer to cast, have a hostile effect, and target one creature or have an area.
You can set a password, a trigger, or both for the glyph.
Any creature that moves, opens, or touches the target container or enters the target area that doesn’t speak the password or that matches the trigger activates the glyph, releasing the harmful spell within.
Once a spell is stored in the glyph, the glyph gains all the traits of that spell.
If the stored spell targets one or more creatures, it targets the creature that set off the glyph.
If it has an area, that area is centered on the creature that set off the glyph.
Glyph of warding’s duration ends when the glyph is triggered.
The glyph counts as a magical trap, using your spell DC for both the Perception check to notice it and the Thievery check to disable it; both checks require the creature attempting them to be trained in order to succeed.
You can Dismiss glyph of warding.
The maximum number of glyphs of warding you can have active at a time is equal to your spellcasting ability modifier.

Requirements The monster’s last action was a success with a Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or it has a creature grabbed using this action.
The monster automatically grabs the target until the end of the monster’s next turn. The creature is Grabbed by whichever body part the monster attacked with, and that body part can’t be used to Strike creatures until the grab is ended.
Using Grab extends the duration of the monster’s Grab until the end of its next turn for all creatures grabbed by it. A grabbed creature can use the Escape action to get out of the grab, and the Grab ends for a grabbed creatures if the monster moves away from it.
Grab is a monster ability. The more normal equivalent ability for PCs is Grapple.

Trigger You fall from or past an edge or handhold.
Requirements Your hands are not tied behind your back or otherwise restrained.
When you fall off or past an edge or other handhold, you can try to grab it, potentially stopping your fall.
You must succeed at a Reflex save, usually at the Climb DC. If you have Steady Balance, you can make an Acrobatics check instead. If you have Rapid Mantel, you can make an Athletics check instead.
If you grab the edge or handhold, you can then Climb up using Athletics. If you have Rapid Mantel, you can immediately climb onto the surface and stand.
| Critical Success | You grab the edge or handhold, whether or not you have a hand free, typically by using a suitable held item to catch yourself (catching a battle axe on a ledge, for example). You still take damage from the distance fallen so far, but you treat the fall as though it were 30 feet shorter. |
|---|---|
| Success | If you have at least one hand free, you grab the edge or handhold, stopping your fall. You still take damage from the distance fallen so far, but you treat the fall as though it were 20 feet shorter. If you have no hands free, you continue to fall as if you had failed the check. |
| Failure | |
| Critical Failure | You continue to fall, and if you’ve fallen 20 feet or more before you use this reaction, you take 10 bludgeoning damage from the impact for every 20 feet fallen. |

Requirements You have at least one free hand. Your target cannot be more than one size larger than you unless you have Titan Wrestler in which case it can be two or three sizes larger, based on your Athletics.
You attempt to grab an opponent with your free hand. You can also Grapple to keep your hold on a creature you already grabbed.

| Critical Failure | If you already had the opponent grabbed or restrained, it breaks free. Your target can either grab you, as if it succeeded at using the Grapple action against you, or force you to fall and land Prone. |
A weapon with the Grapple trait can be used to Grapple with the Athletics skill even if you don’t have a free hand.
This uses the weapon’s reach (if different from your own) and adds the weapon’s item bonus to attack rolls as an item bonus to the Athletics check.
If you critically fail a check to Grapple using the weapon, you can drop the weapon to take the effects of a failure instead of a critical failure.

Difficult terrain is any terrain that impedes your movement, ranging from particularly rough or unstable surfaces to thick ground cover and countless other impediments.
Moving into a square of difficult terrain (or moving 5 feet into or within an area of difficult terrain, if you’re not using a grid) costs an extra 5 feet of movement.
Moving into a square of greater difficult terrain instead costs 10 additional feet of movement.
This additional cost is not increased when moving diagonally.
You can’t Step into difficult terrain unless you have Feather Step.
Movement you make while you are jumping ignores the terrain you’re jumping over. Some abilities (such as flight or being incorporeal) allow you to avoid the movement reduction from some types of difficult terrain.
Certain other abilities let you ignore difficult terrain on foot; such an ability also allows you to move through greater difficult terrain at the normal movement cost as for difficult terrain, though it wouldn’t let you ignore greater difficult terrain unless the ability specifies otherwise.
You have a stalwart physiology.
Your proficiency rank for Fortitude saves increases to legendary.
When you roll a critical failure on a Fortitude save, you get a failure instead.
When you fail a Fortitude save against an effect that deals damage, you halve the damage you take.
Prerequisite Merciful Elixir.
Your additives contain panaceas that can remedy a plethora of maladies.
When you use Merciful Elixir, your elixir can instead attempt to Counteract the Blinded, Deafened, Sickened, or Slowed condition.

This gruesome spell causes the target to grow excess limbs and organs, whether it be fingers multiplying until hands resemble bushes, eyes popping open in bizarre places, legs sprouting from the side of the body, or some other result.
The target takes 10d6 piercing damage (basic Fortitude save) as the new features erupt.
This spell has no effect on a target with a mutable anatomy or no limbs, such as an ooze or a protean. The growths rot rapidly and fall away after 1 round.

The target consistently detects one thing as another, can’t detect something that’s there, or detects something that’s not there, though it doesn’t alter their beliefs.
You choose which of these effects applies, and you determine the specifics of the hallucination. For example, you could make the target see all elves as humans, be unable to detect the presence of their brother, see their beloved pocket watch on their person even when it isn’t, or see a tower in the center of town.
The target can attempt an initial Will save, with effects below.
They also receive a Will save to disbelieve the hallucination every time they Seek or directly interact with the hallucination. For example, the target could attempt to disbelieve the hallucination each time they interacted with an elf, bumped into their brother accidentally, tried to check their pocket watch, or studied the tower.
The target can attempt to disbelieve with a large circumstance bonus in situations determined by the GM, such as if the target attempted to climb the nonexistent tower.

This spell heats the targeted metal to become red-hot for a moment.
This is usually harmless to an unattended metal item, which doesn’t get a saving throw, though the GM might rule that flammable materials connected to the object catch fire or melt.
If you target an item worn or carried by a creature, or you target a creature made primarily of metal, the heat deals 4d6 damage and 2d4 persistent fire damage to the creature, which must attempt a Reflex saving throw.
If you target an item held by the creature, the creature can Release the item to improve their degree of success by one step from the result of their saving throw.
The persistent damage is associated with the object and damages whichever creature is holding or wearing it. It has no effect if no one is holding the item, but you continue to attempt flat checks to end the persistent damage as normal, since the item remains hot and can sear someone who picks it up.
| Critical Success | The creature is unaffected. |
|---|---|

If the character or one of their allies uses a hostile action against the creature, the creature gains a worse attitude condition depending on the severity of the hostile action, as determined by the GM.

Your heroic deeds earn you Hero Points, which grant you good fortune or let you recover from the brink of death.
Unlike most aspects of your character, which persist over the long term, Hero Points last for only a single session.
The GM is in charge of awarding Hero Points.
Usually, each character gets 1 Hero Point at the start of a session and can gain more later by performing heroic deeds—something selfless, daring, or beyond normal expectations.
You can have a maximum of 3 Hero Points at a time, and you lose any remaining Hero Points at the end of a session.
You can spend your Hero Points in one of two ways. Neither of these is an action, and you can spend Hero Points even if you aren’t able to act. You can spend a Hero Point on behalf of your familiar or animal companion.

Trigger An attack would bring you to 0 hit points.
You shout in defiance, filling you with a sudden burst of healing.
Just before applying the attack’s damage, you recover 10d4+20 Hit Points. If this is enough to prevent the attack from bringing you to 0 Hit Points, you don’t become Unconscious or Dying.
Either way, cheating death is difficult, and you can’t use hero’s defiance again until you Refocus or the next time you prepare.
Hero’s defiance cannot be used against effects with the trait or that would leave no remains, such as Disintegrate.

While you’re hidden from a creature, that creature knows the space you’re in but can’t tell precisely where you are.
You typically become hidden by using Stealth to Hide.
When Seeking a creature using only Imprecise senses, it remains hidden, rather than observed.
A creature you’re hidden from is Flat-Footed to you, and it must succeed at a DC 11 flat check when targeting you with an attack, spell, or other effect. If it fails, it doesn't affect the you, though the actions it used are still expended—as well as any spell slots, costs, and other resources.
A creature remains flat-footed to you even if it successfully targets you.
Area effects aren’t subject to this flat check.
A creature might be able to use the Seek action to try to observe you.
| Deny Advantage | Hidden | Prevents flat-footed. |
|---|---|---|
| Keen Eyes | Hidden | Flat check DC becomes 9. |
| True Strike | Hidden | Ignores flat check to attack. |
You huddle behind cover or greater cover or deeper into concealment to become Hidden, rather than Observed.
The GM rolls your Stealth check in secret and compares the result to the Perception DC of each creature you’re observed by but that you have Cover or Greater Cover against or are Concealed from. You gain the circumstance bonus from cover or greater cover to your check.
You can hide from visual spell Triggers by beating their spell DC.
You can't use Concealment granted by Blur to Hide.
If you suceed, if the creature could see you, you’re now Hidden from it instead of Observed. If you were hidden from or Undetected by the creature, you retain that condition.
If you successfully become hidden to a creature but then cease to have cover or greater cover against it or be concealed from it, you become observed again.
You cease being hidden if you do anything except Hide, Sneak, or Step.
If you attempt to Strike a creature, the creature remains Flat-Footed against that attack, and you then become observed.
If you do anything else, you become observed just before you act unless the GM determines otherwise.
The GM might allow you to perform a particularly unobtrusive action without being noticed, possibly requiring another Stealth check.
If a creature uses Seek to make you observed by it, you must successfully Hide to become hidden from it again.

This condition reflects a creature’s disposition toward a particular character, and it affects only creatures that are not player characters.
A creature that is hostile to a character actively seeks to harm that character.
It doesn’t necessarily attack, but it won’t accept Requests from the character.
Sometimes spell effects prevent a target from using hostile actions, or the spell ends if a creature uses any hostile actions.
A hostile action is one that can harm or damage another creature, whether directly or indirectly, but not one that a creature is unaware could cause harm.
For instance, lobbing a fireball into a crowd would be a hostile action, but opening a door and accidentally freeing a horrible monster would not be.
The GM is the final arbitrator of what constitutes a hostile action.

A creature that disbelieves the illusion is temporarily immune to your house of imaginary walls for 1 minute.

You transform your appearance to that of a or humanoid, such as a Dwarf, Elf, Goblin, Halfling, Human, Orc, or Lizardfolk.
You gain the trait in addition to your other traits while in this form, as well as any trait related to the creature’s kind (such as goblin or human).
If this transformation reduces your size, it reduces your reach accordingly (as the Shrink spell).
This transformation doesn’t change your statistics in any way, and you don’t gain any special abilities of the humanoid form you assume.
You can still wear and use your gear, which changes size (if necessary) to match your new form.
If items leave your person, they return to their usual size.
Humanoid form grants you a +4 status bonus to Deception checks to pass as a generic member of the chosen ancestry, and you add your level even if you’re untrained, but you can’t make yourself look like a specific person.
If you want to Impersonate an individual, you still need to create a disguise, though the GM won’t factor in the difference in ancestry when determining the DC of your Deception check.
You can Dismiss this spell.
Heightened (3rd) You gain Darkvision or Low-Light Vision if the form you assume has that ability.

You create a gray storm cloud that pelts creatures with an icy deluge.
When you Cast the Spell, a burst of magical hail deals 2d8 bludgeoning damage and 2d8 cold damage to each creature in the area below the cloud (basic Reflex save).
Snow and sleet continue to rain down in the area for the remainder of the spell’s duration, making the area Difficult Terrain, causing creatures in the storm to be Concealed, and making creatures outside the storm concealed from those inside the storm.
Any creature that ends its turn in the storm takes 4 damage.
If you Cast this Spell outdoors, you can create two non-overlapping clouds instead of one.
Heightened (+2) The initial bludgeoning damage and cold damage increase by 1d8 each, and the cold damage creatures take at the end of their turns increases by 2.

Identifying a creature is technically a special case of Recall Knowledge but it is listed here as a separate action because it is frequently referred to.
A character who successfully identifies a creature learns one of its best-known attributes—such as a troll’s regeneration (and the fact that it can be stopped by acid or fire) or a manticore’s tail spikes.
On a critical success, the character also learns something subtler, like a demon’s weakness or the trigger for one of the creature’s reactions.
The skill used to identify a creature usually depends on that creature’s trait, but you have leeway on which skills apply. For instance, hags are humanoids but have a strong connection to occult spells and live outside society, so you might allow a character to use Occultism to identify them without any DC adjustment, while Society is harder.

Lore skills can also be used to identify their specific creature. Using the applicable Lore usually has an easy or very easy DC (before adjusting for rarity).
The DC is usually based on the creature's level and Rarity Modifier.

Once you discover that an item, location, or ongoing effect is magical, you can spend 10 minutes to try to identify the particulars of its magic.
If your attempt is interrupted, you must start over.
The GM sets the DC for your check. Cursed or esoteric subjects usually have higher DCs or might even be impossible to identify using this activity alone. Heightening a spell doesn’t increase the DC to identify it.
| Critical Success | You learn all the attributes of the magic, including its name (for an effect), what it does, any means of activating it (for an item or location), and whether it is cursed. |
|---|---|
| Success | For an item or location, you get a sense of what it does and learn any means of activating it. For an ongoing effect (such as a spell with a duration), you learn the effect’s name and what it does. You can’t try again in hopes of getting a critical success. |
| Failure | You fail to identify the magic and can’t try again for 1 day. |
| Critical Failure | You misidentify the magic as something else of the GM’s choice. |

Illusions create the semblance of something real, fooling the eyes, ears, and other senses.
They almost always have the trait, and depending on how the illusion is perceived, they might also have the or trait.
Sometimes illusions allow an affected creature a chance to disbelieve the spell, which lets the creature effectively ignore the spell if it succeeds at doing so.
This usually happens when a creature Seeks or otherwise spends actions to engage with the illusion, comparing the result of its Perception check (or another check or saving throw, at the GM’s discretion) to the caster’s spell DC.
Mental illusions typically provide rules in the spell’s description for disbelieving the effect (often allowing the affected creature to attempt a Will save).
If the illusion is , and a creature interacts with the illusion in a way that would prove it is not what it seems, the creature might know that an illusion is present, but it still can’t ignore the illusion without successfully disbelieving it. For instance, if a character is pushed through the illusion of a door, they will know that the door is an illusion, but they still can’t see through it.
Disbelieving an illusion makes it and those things it blocks seem hazy and indistinct, so even in the case where a visual illusion is disbelieved, it may, at the GM’s discretion, block vision enough to make those on the other side Concealed.

You create an illusory image of a or smaller creature.
It generates the appropriate sounds, smells, and feels believable to the touch.
If you and the image are ever farther than 500 feet apart, the spell ends.
The image can’t speak, but you can use your actions to speak through the creature, with the spell disguising your voice as appropriate. You might need to attempt a Deception or Performance check to mimic the creature, as determined by the GM. This is especially likely if you’re trying to imitate a specific person and engage with someone that person knows.
In combat, the illusion can use 2 actions per turn, which it uses when you Sustain the Spell.
It uses your spell attack roll for attack rolls and your spell DC for its AC. Its saving throw modifiers are equal to your spell DC – 10.
It is substantial enough that it can flank other creatures.
If the image is hit by an attack or fails a save, the spell ends.
The illusion can cause damage by making the target believe the illusion’s attacks are real, but it cannot otherwise directly affect the physical world.
If the illusory creature hits with a Strike, the target takes mental damage equal to 1d4 plus your spellcasting ability modifier. This is a effect. The illusion’s Strikes are nonlethal.
If the damage doesn’t correspond to the image of the monster—for example, if an illusory Large dragon deals only 5 damage—the GM might allow the target to attempt a Perception check to disbelieve the spell as a free action.
Any relevant resistances and weaknesses apply if the target thinks they do, as judged by the GM. For example, if the illusion wields a warhammer and attacks a creature resistant to bludgeoning damage, the creature would take less mental damage.
However, illusory damage does not deactivate regeneration or trigger other effects that require a certain damage type.
The GM should track illusory damage dealt by the illusion.
Any creature that touches the image or uses the Seek action to examine it can attempt to disbelieve your illusion.
When a creature disbelieves the illusion, it recovers from half the damage it had taken from it (if any) and doesn’t take any further damage from it.
Heightened (+1) The damage of the image’s Strikes increases by 1d4, and the maximum size of creature you can create increases by one (to a maximum of ).

You create an illusion that causes you to appear as another creature of the same body shape, and with roughly similar height (within 6 inches) and weight (within 50 pounds), as yourself.
The disguise is typically good enough to hide your identity, but not to impersonate a specific individual.
The spell doesn’t change your voice, scent, or mannerisms.
You can change the appearance of your clothing and worn items, such as making your armor look like a dress. Held items are unaffected, and any worn item you remove returns to its true appearance.
Casting illusory disguise counts as setting up a disguise for the Impersonate use of Deception; it ignores any circumstance penalties you might take for disguising yourself as a dissimilar creature, it gives you a +4 status bonus to Deception checks to prevent others from seeing through your disguise, and you add your level even if you’re untrained.
You can Dismiss this spell.
Heightened (2nd) The spell also disguises your voice and scent, and it gains the trait.
Heightened (3rd) You can appear as any creature of the same size, even a specific individual. You must have seen an individual to take on their appearance. The spell also disguises your voice and scent, and it gains the auditory trait.

You form an imaginary scene that includes up to 10 discrete creatures or objects of various sizes, all of which must be within the spell’s area.
These elements generate appropriate sounds and smells, and they feel right to the touch.
Elements of an illusory scene are incapable of speech.
Unlike with the Illusory Creature spell, creatures in your scene lack combat abilities and statistics.
Your scene doesn’t include changes to the environment around it, though you can place your scene within the illusory environment of a Hallucinatory Terrain spell.
When you create the scene, you can choose to have it be static or follow a program. Though a static scene is stationary, it includes basic natural movement. For example, wind blowing on an illusory piece of paper would rustle it. A program can be up to 1 minute long and repeats when finished. For instance, you could create a scene of two orcs fighting each other, and the fight would go the same way for each repetition. If you create a loop, the two fighters end up in the same place at the start of the scene and at the end of it, but you can smooth the program so it’s hard to tell when the loop ends and begins. Anyone observing the scene for more than a few minutes almost always notices it looping. You’re unable to alter the program after you create the illusion.
Any creature that touches any part of the image or uses the Seek action to examine it can attempt to disbelieve your illusion.
If they interact with a portion of the illusion, they disbelieve only that portion.
They disbelieve the entire scene only on a critical success.
Heightened (6th) Creatures or objects in your scene can speak. You must speak the specific lines for each actor when creating your program. The spell disguises your voice for each actor.

In addition, once per round you can direct the briars to impale any target in the area (or flying up to 20 feet above the area) that you can see by using a single action, which has the and traits.

You conjure a spike that thrusts up from the earth beneath a target creature, potentially impaling it.
The spike is made of Cold Iron and deals 8d6 piercing damage.
The target must attempt a Reflex save.
Heightened (+1) The damage increases by 2d6.
| Critical Success | The target dodges the spike and is unaffected. |
|---|---|
| Success | The target is struck by the spike and takes half damage. |
| Failure | The target is impaled through a leg or another non‑vital body part. The creature takes full damage and, if it’s standing on solid ground, becomes immobilized. It can attempt to Escape (the DC is your spell DC). While it remains impaled, it takes damage from any Weakness to Cold Iron it has at the end of each of its turns. |
| Critical Failure | As failure, but the creature is impaled through a vital organ or its center of mass, taking double damage, and it is Flat-Footed as long as it’s impaled. |

Prerequisites Master in Crafting, Specialty Crafting.
You craft flawless creations with great efficiency.
Whenever you roll a success at a Crafting check to make an item of the type you chose with Specialty Crafting, you get a critical success instead.
| Feat Type | Skill |
|---|---|
| Level | 7 |
| Skill | Crafting |
| Requirement | M |
| Requires |
You create a disguise to pass yourself off as someone or something you are not.
Assembling a convincing disguise takes 10 minutes and requires a Disguise Kit. A simpler, quicker disguise might do the job if you’re not trying to imitate a specific individual, at the GM’s discretion. If you have Quick Disguise, it takes less time.
In most cases, creatures have a chance to detect your deception only if they use the Seek action to attempt Perception checks against your Deception DC.
If you attempt to directly interact with someone while disguised, the GM rolls a secret Deception check for you against that creature’s Perception DC instead.
If you’re disguised as a specific individual, the GM might give creatures you interact with a circumstance bonus based on how well they know the person you’re imitating, or the GM might roll a secret Deception check even if you aren’t directly interacting with others.
If you have Courtly Graces and are pretending to be a noble, you can use Society instead of Deception.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | You trick the creature into thinking you’re the person you’re disguised as. You might have to attempt a new check if your behavior changes. |
| Failure | The creature can tell you’re not who you claim to be. |
| Critical Failure | The creature can tell you’re not who you claim to be, and it recognizes you if it would know you without a disguise. |

Each time you Sustain the Spell, you must choose a new target to be subject to the same effect.
The same creature can never be targeted more than once with a single casting of this spell.
You also can’t affect more than one creature per turn with implosion.
You can’t target a creature that’s incorporeal, gaseous, or liquid, or one that otherwise lacks a solid form.

Hearing is an imprecise sense for most creatures —it cannot detect the full range of detail that a precise sense can.
You can usually sense a creature automatically with an imprecise sense, but it has the Hidden condition instead of the Observed condition.
It might be Undetected by you if it’s using Stealth or is in an environment that distorts the sense, such as a noisy room in the case of hearing. In those cases, you have to use the Seek basic action to detect the creature.
At best, an imprecise sense can be used to make an undetected creature (or one you didn’t even know was there) merely hidden—it can’t make the creature observed.
Pathfinder’s rules assume by default that a given creature has hearing as its only imprecise sense.

Your performances inspire admiration and win you fans.

You project psychic vibrations onto the target object, imprinting it with a short message or emotional theme of your design.
This imprinted sensation is revealed to a creature who casts Object Reading on the target object, replacing any emotional events the item was present for.
If the object is in the area of a Retrocognition spell, the imprinted messages appear as major events in the timeline, but they don’t interfere with any other visions.
If the object is targeted with Read Aura of a higher spell level than imprint message, the caster learns that the object has been magically modified.
When you Cast this Spell, any prior vibrations placed on an object by previous castings of imprint message fade.

Your mastery of alchemical secrets enables you to replicate effects most believe can be achieved only via magic.
Select a number of s equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum 1) of 9th level or lower.
You gain formulas to create these potions as alchemical items with the trait.
When making these alchemical elixirs, you can substitute alchemical reagents for an equal value of magical components, and you can use alchemist’s tools (for Quick Alchemy) or an alchemist's lab (for the Craft activity) instead of any other required tool kits. Other than that, the formula does not change.
Once you’ve chosen the potion formulas, they can’t be changed.

Your ability to elude danger is matchless.
Your proficiency rank for Reflex saves increases to legendary.
When you roll a critical failure on a Reflex save, you get a failure instead.
When you roll a failure on a Reflex save against a damaging effect, you take half damage.
You’ve long held that fine-tuning the magic that bonds wizard and familiar can improve the mystic connection, compared to the safe yet generic bond most wizards currently use. You’ve formed such a pact with your familiar, gaining more advantages from it than most wizards.
You gain the Familiar (Feat) wizard feat as a bonus feat.
Your familiar gains an extra ability, and it gains an additional extra ability when you reach 6th, 12th, and 18th levels.
Your connection with your familiar alters your arcane bond class feature so that you store your magical energy in your familiar, rather than an item you own; you also gain the Drain Familiar free action instead of Drain Bonded Item.
Drain Familiar can be used any time an ability would allow you to use Drain Bonded Item and functions identically, except that you draw magic from your familiar instead of an item.
The monster can use Grab as a free action.
The monster still needs to spend an action to extend the duration for monsters it has already grabbed.
Requirements The monster’s last action was a success with a Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or it has a creature grabbed using this action.
The monster automatically grabs the target until the end of the monster’s next turn. The creature is Grabbed by whichever body part the monster attacked with, and that body part can’t be used to Strike creatures until the grab is ended.
Using Grab extends the duration of the monster’s Grab until the end of its next turn for all creatures grabbed by it. A grabbed creature can use the Escape action to get out of the grab, and the Grab ends for a grabbed creatures if the monster moves away from it.
Grab is a monster ability. The more normal equivalent ability for PCs is Grapple.

This repair restores no Hit Points, so the item is easy to destroy.
Once the item is Repaired normally such that it is no longer Broken, it is also no longer shoddy.

An ability with this trait can take a character completely out of the fight or even kill them, and it’s harder to use on a more powerful character.
If a spell has the incapacitation trait, any creature of more than twice the spell’s level treats the result of their check to prevent being incapacitated as one degree of success better or the result of any check the spellcaster made to incapacitate them as one degree of success worse.
If any other effect has the incapacitation trait, a creature of higher level than the item, creature, or hazard generating the effect gains the same benefits.
An incline is an area so steep that you need to Climb using the Athletics skill in order to progress upward.
You’re Flat-Footed when Climbing an incline. (You would normally be flat-footed when Climbing.)
An incorporeal creature or object has no physical form.
It can pass through solid objects, including walls.
When inside an object, an incorporeal creature can’t perceive, attack, or interact with anything outside the object, and if it starts its turn in an object, it is Slowed 1.
Corporeal creatures can pass through an incorporeal creature, but they can’t end their movement in its space.
An incorporeal creature can’t attempt Strength-based checks against physical creatures or objects—only against incorporeal ones—unless those objects have the Ghost Touch property rune. Likewise, a corporeal creature can’t attempt Strength-based checks against incorporeal creatures or objects.
Incorporeal creatures usually have immunity to effects or conditions that require a physical body, like disease, poison, and precision damage. They usually have resistance against all damage (except force damage and damage from Strikes with the ghost touch property rune), with double the resistance against non-magical damage.
You react more quickly than others can.

This condition reflects a creature’s disposition toward a particular character, and it affects only creatures that are not player characters.
A creature that is indifferent to a character doesn’t really care one way or the other about that character.
Assume a creature’s attitude to a given character is indifferent unless specified otherwise.

With patience and time, you can make bird calls, leave game trails, and ultimately influence the behavior of a certain type of animals in the region to favor and even aid you in the days to come.
The GM determines the DC of any check required and the amount of time your work requires (usually at least a day or two of downtime).
While you can’t directly control how you’ve influenced nature, you can hope for certain effects, such as easier hunts or birds falling silent whenever danger is approaching.
If you’re legendary in Nature, you can elicit these same adjustments to animal behavior in the area by spending only 10 minutes.

You infuse reagents with your own alchemical essence, allowing you to create alchemical items at no cost.
Each day during your daily preparations, you gain a number of batches of infused reagents equal to your level + your Intelligence modifier.
You can use these reagents for either advanced alchemy or Quick Alchemy.
Together, these infused reagents have light Bulk.
As soon as you make your next daily preparations, your infused reagents from the previous day’s preparations are instantly destroyed, and nonpermanent effects of your previous day’s infused items immediately end.
While infused reagents are physical objects, they can’t be duplicated, preserved, or created in any way other than your daily preparations. Any such artificial reagents lack the infusion and are useless for advanced alchemy or Quick Alchemy.

You envision a simple bug and transform into a Medium animal battle form.
When you cast this spell, choose ant, beetle, centipede, mantis, scorpion, or spider. You can decide the specific type of animal (such as such as a ladybug or scarab for beetle), but this has no effect on the form’s Size or statistics.
While in this form, you gain the trait.
You can Dismiss this spell.
The special statistics of a battle form can be adjusted only by circumstance bonuses, status bonuses, and penalties.
You can't cast spells, speak, or use Manipulate actions that require hands in your battle form.
Your gear is absorbed into you; the constant abilities of your gear still function, but you can’t activate any items.
You gain the following statistics and abilities regardless of which battle form you choose:
You also gain specific abilities based on the form you choose:
Heightened (4th) Your battle form is Large, and your attacks have 10-foot reach. You must have enough space to expand into or the spell is lost. You instead gain 15 temporary HP, attack modifier +16, damage bonus +6, and Athletics +16.
Heightened (5th) Your battle form is Huge, and your attacks have 15-foot reach. You must have enough space to expand into or the spell is lost. You instead gain 20 temporary HP, attack modifier +18, damage bonus +2 and double damage dice (including persistent damage), and Athletics +20.

This counts as having taken sufficient preparatory actions to Aid your ally on a skill check of your choice, regardless of the circumstances.
When you later use the Aid reaction, you can roll Performane instead of the normal skill check, and if you roll a failure, you get a success instead.

Intelligence measures how well your character can learn and reason.
A high Intelligence allows your character to analyze situations and understand patterns, and it means they can become trained in additional skills and might be able to master additional languages.
Intelligence governs Arcana, Crafting, Lore, Occultism and Society.
Being Stupefied, Sickened or Frightened reduces your Intelligence rolls.

Prerequisites Master in Crafting.
You are a genius at Crafting, easily able to determine how things are made and create new inventions.
You can spend downtime to invent a common Formula that you don’t know.
This works just like the Craft activity: you spend half the Price of the formula up front, attempt a Crafting check, and on a success either finish the formula by paying the difference or work for longer to decrease the Price.
The difference is that you spend the additional time in research, design, and development, rather than in creating an item.
Once it’s complete, you add the new formula you invented to your formula book.

You seek out information about your surroundings while traveling at half speed.
You use Recall Knowledge as a secret check to discover clues among the various things you can see and engage with as you journey along.
You can use any skill that has a Recall Knowledge action while Investigating, but the GM determines whether the skill is relevant to the clues you could find.
As with Searching or Detecting Magic, the initial result of Investigating is usually enough to give the investigator a clue that leads into a more thorough examination, but it rarely gives all possible information. For instance, a character might note that the walls of a dungeon are covered with Abyssal writing, but they would need to stop to read the text or determine that it’s written in blood.

Cloaked in illusion, the target becomes Invisible.
This makes it Undetected to all creatures who have vision as their precise sense, though the creatures can attempt to find the target, making it Hidden to them instead.

You and all targets are Invisible except to each other as long as you remain within the spell’s area.
If a creature made invisible by this spell leaves the spell’s area, it becomes visible and remains so even if it returns to the spell’s area.
If any creature made invisible by this spell uses a Hostile Action, the spell ends after the hostile action is completed.
While exploring, it’s easy to move together slowly and remain invisible. This is untenable in a battle, however. Once an encounter begins, creatures remain invisible until at most the end of the first round, at which point the spell ends.

While invisible, you can’t be seen.
You’re Undetected to everyone who uses vision as a primary or precise sense.
Creatures can Seek to attempt to detect you; if a creature succeeds at its Perception check against your Stealth DC, you become Hidden to that creature until you Sneak to become undetected again.
If you become invisible while someone can already see you, you start out hidden to the observer (instead of undetected) until you successfully Sneak.
You can’t become observed while invisible except via special abilities or magic or precise senses other than vision.
Other effects might make an invisible creature hidden or even observed but Concealed. For instance, if you were tracking an invisible creature’s footprints through the snow, the footprints would make it hidden. Similarly, throwing a net over an invisible creature would make it observed but concealed for as long as the net is on the creature.

You make the object Invisible.
This makes it Undetected to all creatures, though the creatures can attempt to find the target, making it Hidden to them instead if they succeed.
If the item is used as part of a Hostile Action, the spell ends after that hostile action is completed.
Making a weapon invisible typically doesn’t give any advantage to the attack, except that an invisible thrown weapon or piece of ammunition can be used for an attack without necessarily giving information about the attacker’s hiding place unless the weapon returns to the attacker.

Your mouth, esophagus, and stomach become incredibly elastic and tougher than metal.
For the duration of the spell, you can reach down your throat to store or retrieve a single object of light or negligible Bulk in your stomach, as though your stomach were a backpack or other container. Storing and retrieving an item in this way requires an Interact action.
The object must be small enough to reasonably fit within your stomach.
It is very difficult for other creatures to notice that you are hiding an object in this way; passive observers can’t possibly notice and you gain a +4 circumstance bonus to your Stealth checks to Conceal the Object unless the searcher specifically searches your mouth and stomach.
If at the end of the spell’s duration you still have an object stored in your stomach, it is violently expelled, dealing 1d6 damage to you.

Your fame has spread throughout the lands.
NPCs who succeed at a DC 10 Society check to Recall Knowledge have heard of you and usually have an attitude toward you one step better than normal, depending on your reputation and the NPC’s disposition.

You defy gravity and levitate the target 5 feet off the ground.
For the duration of the spell, you can move the target up or down 10 feet with a single action, which has the trait.
A creature floating in the air from levitate takes a –2 circumstance penalty to attack rolls.
A floating creature can spend an Interact action to stabilize itself and negate this penalty for the remainder of its turn.
If the target is adjacent to a fixed object or terrain of suitable stability, it can move across the surface by climbing (if the surface is vertical, like a wall) or crawling (if the surface is horizontal, such as a ceiling).
The GM determines which surfaces can be climbed or crawled across.

You try to fool someone with an untruth.
Doing so takes at least 1 round, or longer if the lie is elaborate.
You roll a single Deception check and compare it against the Perception DC of every creature you are trying to fool. If they have Lie to Me, they can use their Deception DC instead if it is better.
The GM might give them a circumstance bonus based on the situation and the nature of the lie you are trying to tell. Elaborate or highly unbelievable lies are much harder to get a creature to believe than simpler and more believable lies, and some lies are so big that it’s impossible to get anyone to believe them.
At the GM’s discretion, if a creature initially believes your lie, it might attempt a Perception check later to Sense Motive against your Deception DC to realize it’s a lie. This usually happens if the creature discovers enough evidence to counter your statements.
| Critical Success | If you have Charming Liar, the target believes your lie and their attitude improves by one step, once per conversation. |

You Stride, then make a horizontal Leap and attempt an Athletics check to increase the length of your jump.
If you have Quick Jump, you can Long Jump as a single action but you don't Stride.
The DC of the Athletics check is equal to the total distance in feet you’re attempting to move during your Leap (so you’d need to succeed at a DC 20 check to Leap 20 feet). You can’t Leap farther than your Speed. This DC might be increased or decreased due to the situation, as determined by the GM.
If you didn’t Stride at least 10 feet, or if you attempt to jump in a different direction than your Stride, you automatically fail your check unless you have Quick Jump.

Key Ability Intelligence.
You have specialized information on a narrow topic.
Lore features many subcategories. You might have Military Lore, Sailing Lore, Vampire Lore, or any similar subcategory of the skill.
Each subcategory counts as its own skill, so applying a skill increase to Planar Lore wouldn’t increase your proficiency with Sailing Lore, for example.
You gain a specific subcategory of the Lore skill from your background. The GM determines what other subcategories they’ll allow as Lore skills, though these categories are always less broad than any of the other skills that allow you to Recall Knowledge, and they should never be able to fully or mainly take the place of another skill’s Recall Knowledge action. For instance, Magic Lore wouldn’t enable you to recall the same breadth of knowledge covered by Arcana, Adventuring Lore wouldn’t simply give you all the information an adventurer needs, and Planar Lore would not be sufficient to gain all the information spread across various skills and subcategories such as Heaven Lore.
If you have multiple subcategories of Lore that could apply to a check or that would overlap with another skill in the circumstances, you can use the skill with the better skill modifier or the one you would prefer to use.
If there’s any doubt whether a Lore skill applies to a specific topic or action, the GM decides whether it can be used or not.

You create a single magical hand, either invisible or ghostlike, that grasps the target object and moves it slowly up to 20 feet.
Because you’re levitating the object, you can move it in any direction.
When you Sustain the Spell, you can move the object an additional 20 feet. If the object is in the air when the spell ends, the object falls.
Heightened (3rd) You can target an unattended object with a Bulk of 1 or less.

You alter the appearance of an item’s magic aura.
You can choose to have the target’s aura appear as that of common magic item of twice magic aura’s level or lower, or to have it register as being under the effects of a spell of your choice of magic aura’s level or lower.
If the target is magical, you can instead choose to have it appear as entirely non-magical.
A caster using Detect Magic or study aura (they probably mean Read Aura) of an equal or higher spell level can attempt to disbelieve the illusion from magic aura.
Magic aura doesn’t mask the aura of spells that are 9th level or higher or of items that are 19th level or higher.
Heightened (3rd) You can target a creature instead of an object. When you do, you can either conceal the auras of all magic items it has or have that creature’s aura appear as if it were under the effect of a spell you know.

You send a dart of force streaking toward a creature that you can see.
It automatically hits and deals 1d4+1 damage.
For each additional action you use when Casting the Spell, increase the number of missiles you shoot by one, to a maximum of three missiles for 3 actions.
You choose the target for each missile individually.
If you shoot more than one missile at the same target, combine the damage before applying bonuses or penalties to damage, resistances, weaknesses, and so forth.
If you shoot only one missile, this spell is but it still has both Verbal and Somatic components. This is an exception to the usual rules for number of actions to cast.

Learning spells comes easily to you.
If you’re an expert in a tradition’s associated skill, you take 10 minutes per spell level to learn a spell of that tradition, rather than 1 hour per spell level. If you’re a master in the tradition’s associated skill, learning a spell takes 5 minutes per spell level, and if you’re legendary, it takes 1 minute per spell level.
If you fail to learn the spell, you can try again after 1 week or after you gain a level, whichever comes first.
You can use downtime to learn and inscribe new spells. This works as if you were using Earn Income with the tradition’s associated skill, but instead of gaining money, you choose a spell available to you to learn and gain a discount on learning it, learning it for free if your earned income equals or exceeds its cost.

You conjure an extradimensional demiplane consisting of a spacious dwelling with a single entrance.
The entrance connects to the plane where you Cast the Spell, appearing anywhere within the spell’s range as a faint, shimmering, vertical rectangle 5 feet wide and 10 feet high.
You designate who can enter when you cast the spell.
Once inside, you can shut the entrance, making it invisible. You and the creatures you designated can reopen the door at will, just like opening a physical door.
Inside, the demiplane appears to be a mansion featuring a magnificent foyer and numerous opulent chambers. The mansion can have any floor plan you imagine as you Cast the Spell, provided it fits within a space 40 feet wide, 40 feet deep, and 30 feet tall.
While the entrance to the mansion is closed, effects from outside the mansion fail to penetrate it, and vice versa, except for Plane Shift, which can be used to enter the mansion.
You can use magic and similar effects to observe the outside only if they’re capable of crossing planes.
A staff of up to 24 servants attends to anyone within the mansion. These are like the servant created by the Unseen Servant spell, though they’re visible, with an appearance you determine during casting. The mansion is stocked with enough food to serve a nine-course banquet to 150 people.

With at least 1 minute of conversation, during which you engage in charismatic overtures, flattery, and other acts of goodwill, you seek to make a good impression on someone to make them temporarily agreeable.
At the end of the conversation, attempt a Diplomacy check against the Will DC of one target, modified by any circumstances the GM sees fit.
Good impressions (or bad impressions, on a critical failure) last for only the current social interaction unless the GM decides otherwise.

The target appears to be a gruesome and terrifying creature. The effect is unique to each observer, so a human viewing the target might see a demon with bloody fangs, but a demon observing the target might see a glowing angelic visage.
When any creature attempts a Hostile Action against the target, the creature must attempt a Will save.
It is then temporarily immune until the end of its next turn.
Heightened (8th) You can target up to 5 creatures. If a creature uses a hostile action or reaction that affects multiple targets simultaneously, it needs to attempt only one save against mask of terror.
The non-heightened version does not explicitly mention reactions, but it is generally assumed that the intent is not that hostile reactions are a different class from hostile actions.

A material component is a bit of physical matter consumed in the casting of the spell.
Material components aren’t ubiquitous like somatic and verbal components. They’re used primarily for spells with physical effects, especially ones with a longer duration or that alter or control a large area, such as walls or zones of dangerous terrain. A material component pouch typically contains everything you need. This doesn’t mean the materials are interchangeable, though—one spell might need powdered iron and another a particular gemstone.
The spell gains the Manipulate trait and requires you to have a free hand to retrieve and manipulate a material component.
That component is expended in the casting (even if the spell is disrupted).
Except in extreme circumstances, you can assume all common components are included in a material component pouch.
If you’re a Bard Casting a Spell from the Occult tradition while holding a musical instrument, you can can usually play an instrument for spells requiring somatic or material components, as long as it takes at least one of your hands to do so. If you use an instrument, you don’t need a spell component pouch or another hand free. You can usually also play an instrument for spells requiring verbal components, instead of speaking.
If you’re a Cleric Casting a Spell from the Divine tradition while holding a divine focus (such as a religious symbol or text), you can replace any material component the spell requires by using the divine focus as a Focus component instead. Unlike the normal rules for a focus component, you can’t retrieve or stow the focus when making this substitution.
If you’re a Druid Casting a Spell from the Primal tradition while holding a primal focus (such as holly and mistletoe), you can replace any material component the spell requires by using the primal focus as a Focus component instead. Unlike the normal rules for a focus component, you can’t retrieve or stow the focus when making this substitution.
If you’re a Sorcerer Casting a Spell from the magical tradition that matches your bloodline, you can draw on the magic within your blood to replace any material component with a Somatic component.

You transport the target into an extradimensional maze of eldritch origin and trap it there.
Once each turn, the target can spend 1 action to attempt a Survival check or Perception check against your spell DC to escape the maze.
The possible outcomes are as follows.
| Critical Success | The target escapes and the spell ends. |
|---|---|
| Success | The target is on the right path to the exit. If the target was already on the right path, it escapes the maze and the spell ends. |
| Failure | The target makes no progress toward escape. |
| Critical Failure | The target makes no progress toward escape, and if it was on the right path, it no longer is. |
magic doesn’t help the creature escape unless the magic can transport across planes, such as Plane Shift.
When the spell ends, either because the target escaped or the duration ran out, the target returns to the space it occupied when it was banished, or to the nearest space if the original is now filled.
Note that the target still gets 3 actions per turn and does not have to attempt to escape the maze every round. They can use their remaining actions to, for example, cast spells on themselves.

Additive 3.
Prerequisites Expanded Splash.
Requirements You are holding an alchemical bomb you crafted, with a level at least 3 lower than your advanced alchemy level.
You add an incredibly powerful additive to a held bomb to create a mega bomb, greatly increasing its area and power.
You use an Interact action to throw the mega bomb, rather than Strike, and you don’t make an attack roll.
The mega bomb affects creatures in a 30-foot-radius burst, centered within 60 feet of you.
The bomb deals damage as if each creature were the primary target, with a basic Reflex save.
On a failed save, a creature also takes any extra effects that affect a primary target (such as Flat-Footed from Bottled Lightning).
While all targets in the area take splash damage as primary targets, there is no further splash beyond that area.
If your next action after creating a mega bomb isn’t an Interact action to throw it, the mega bomb denatures and loses all effects.

You mouth words quietly, but instead of coming out of your mouth, they’re transferred directly to the ears of the target.
While others can’t hear your words any better than if you normally mouthed them, the target can hear your words as if they were standing next to you.
The target can give a brief response as a reaction, or as a free action on their next turn if they wish, but they must be able to see you and be within range to do so.
If they respond, their response is delivered directly to your ear, just like the original message.

Actions with the metamagic trait tweak the properties of your spells.
These actions usually come from metamagic feats.
You must use a metamagic action directly before Casting the Spell you want to alter. If you use any action (including free actions and reactions) other than Cast a Spell directly after, you waste the benefits of the metamagic action.
Any additional effects added by a metamagic action are part of the spell’s effect, not of the metamagic action itself.
You’ve realized that the practice known as metamagic is a holdover from a time long ago, when wizards had to work out their own spells and variations rather than rely on spells recorded by others and passed down over the years. This allows you efficient access to various metamagic effects.
You gain a 1st-level metamagic wizard feat as a bonus feat. Starting at 4th level, during your daily preparations, you can gain a metamagic wizard feat of your choice that has a level requirement of no more than half your level, which you can use until your next daily preparations.

Minions are creatures that directly serve another creature.
A creature with this trait can use only 2 actions per turn and can’t use reactions.
Your minion acts on your turn in combat, once per turn, when you spend an action to issue it commands. For an animal companion, you Command an Animal; for a minion that’s a spell or magic item effect like a summoned minion you Sustain a Spell or Sustain an Activation; and if not otherwise specified, you issue a verbal command, which is a single action with the Auditory and Concentrate traits.
If given no commands, by default minions use no actions except to defend themselves or to escape obvious harm.
If left unattended for long enough, typically 1 minute, Mindless minions usually don’t act, animals often indulge their creature comforts, and sapient minions act how they please.

Three illusory images of you swirl about your space, potentially causing those who attack you to hit one of the images instead of you.
Any attack that would hit you has a random chance of hitting one of your images instead of you.
If all three images remain, there is a 1 in 4 chance of hitting you (1 on 1d4).
With two images remaining, there is a 1 in 3 chance of hitting you (1–2 on 1d6).
With only one image, the chances are 1 in 2 (1–3 on 1d6).
Once an image is hit, it is destroyed.
If an attack roll fails to hit your AC but doesn’t critically fail, it destroys an image but has no additional effect (even if the attack would normally have an effect on a failure).
If an attack roll is a critical success and would hit one of the images, one of the images is destroyed and the attack roll becomes a success against you.
Once all the images are destroyed, the spell ends.

A misfortune effect detrimentally alters how you roll your dice.
You can never have more than one misfortune effect alter a single roll. If multiple misfortune effects would apply, the GM decides which is worse and applies it.
If a fortune effect and a misfortune effect would apply to the same roll, the two cancel each other out, and you roll normally.

You turn yourself Invisible and create an illusory duplicate of yourself.
When you Sustain the Spell, you can mentally dictate a course of action for your duplicate to follow that round.
Your duplicate acts as though it had your full number of actions, though it can’t actually affect anything in the environment.
Both the duplicate and your invisibility persist for the spell’s duration.
Performing a Hostile Action doesn’t end mislead’s invisibility, just like a 4th-level invisibility spell.
A creature that determines the duplicate is an illusion doesn’t necessarily know you’re invisible, and one that can see your invisible form doesn’t necessarily know your duplicate is an illusion.
If you Cast a Spell, attack, or otherwise interact with another creature, as a part of that action you can attempt a Deception check against observers’ Perception DCs to convince them your duplicate used that action. This doesn’t fool anyone who’s aware your duplicate is an illusion, nor does it work if the attack obviously couldn’t have come from the duplicate. For instance, if you fired a ray, you could make it look like it came from the duplicate as long as the duplicate was positioned appropriately, but if you attacked with a sword and your duplicate was across the room from the target, your Deception check would automatically fail.

You alter the target’s memories, either erasing a memory, enhancing a memory’s clarity, altering a memory, or adding a false memory.
The target can attempt a Will save to resist the spell.
Any memories you’ve altered remain changed as long as the spell is active. This means that others can Dispel the spell to enable the target to recover their original memories.
If the target moves out of range before the 5 minutes is up, you can’t alter any further memories.
Heightened (6th) You can cast the spell on a willing target to suppress all memory of a particular topic, detailed in 50 words or fewer. The effect is permanent, and it patches these omissions with an indistinct haze.
| Critical Success | The target is unaffected and realizes you tried to alter its memory. |
|---|---|
| Success | The target is unaffected but thinks your spell was something harmless instead of modify memory, unless it identifies the spell. |

The targets experience a day’s worth of recovery in an instant.
Any detrimental effects that would be gone after 24 hours end, though this doesn’t shorten the duration of any active spells affecting the targets.
The targets regain Hit Points and recover from conditions as if they had taken 24 hours of Rest, but they do not make their daily preparations again or gain any benefits of rest other than healing.
24 hours of rest normally means that the creature recovers hit points equal to double their Constitution modifier times their level.
The targets are then temporarily immune for 1 day.

A feral aspect overcomes the targets, making them tough and savage.
Targets gain 5 temporary Hit Points, a +10-foot status bonus to their Speeds, and Weakness 5 to silver.
They also grow vicious fangs and claws, which are unarmed attacks. The fangs deal 2d8 piercing damage; the claws deal 2d6 slashing damage and have the Agile and Finesse traits. The targets use their highest weapon or unarmed attack proficiency with these attacks, and if they have weapon specialization or greater weapon specialization, they add this damage as well. On a critical hit with one of these unarmed attacks, the creature struck takes 1d4 persistent bleed damage.
The targets can’t use actions unless those actions also have the trait, with the exception of Seek.
A creature can attempt to end the spell’s effect on itself by using a single action, which has the trait, to attempt a Will save against your spell DC; on a success, it ends the spell’s effect on itself.
If a target is in the light of a full moon, it also grows by one size if it were Medium or smaller. This increases the reach of a Medium or Tiny creature by 5 feet.
Heightened (6th) The temporary Hit Points increase to 10, the silver weakness to 10, and the damage dealt by the attacks to three dice.

Spells that slightly alter a creature’s form have the morph trait.
Any Strikes specifically granted by a morph effect are Magical.
You can be affected by multiple morph spells at once, but if you morph the same body part more than once, the second morph effect attempts to Counteract the first.
Your morph effects might also end if you are Polymorphed and the polymorph effect invalidates or overrides your morph effect. For instance, a morph that gave you wings would be dismissed if you polymorphed into a form that had wings of its own (though if your new form lacked wings, you’d keep the wings from your morph).
The GM determines which morph effects can be used together and which can’t.
Prerequisites You follow the Laws of Mortality.
You grant greater healing when the gods don’t interfere.
When you roll a success to Treat Wounds for a creature that hasn’t regained Hit Points from divine magic in the past 24 hours, you get a critical success on your check instead and restore the corresponding amount of Hit Points.

Requirements You are adjacent to a creature that is at least one size larger than you and is willing to be your mount.
You move onto the creature and ride it.
If you have the Ride feat, the creature skips its next turn and acts as a Minion under your control on your next turn. If you don't, you have to use Command an Animal to tell the mount what to do.
If you’re already mounted, you can instead use this action to dismount, moving off the mount into a space adjacent to it.

You can cast the Disrupt Undead cantrip as a primal innate spell at will.
A cantrip is heightened to a spell level equal to half your level rounded up.
Each time you cast a spell from a tengu heritage or ancestry feat, you can decide whether it’s a divine or primal spell.
You can ride some creatures into combat.
As noted in the Mount specialty basic action, your mount needs to be at least one size larger than you and willing.
Your mount acts on your initiative.
You must use the Command an Animal action to get your mount to spend its actions. If you don’t, the animal wastes its actions. For example, if you are mounted on a horse and you make three attacks, your horse would remain stationary since you didn’t command it. If you instead spent your first action to Command an Animal and succeeded, you could get your mount to Stride. You could spend your next action to attack or to command the horse to attack, but not both.
For an intelligent mount (such as a pegasus or unicorn), use the standard rules for mounted combat, but instead of attempting a check to Command an Animal, the rider uses the same number of actions to ask the creature to do what they want. As the GM, you determine whether the creature does as requested and whether Diplomacy checks or the like are needed. It’s recommended you disallow humanoid creatures and most other bipeds as mounts, especially if they are PCs. If you choose to allow this anyway, either the rider or mount should use at least one hand to hold onto the other, and both should spend an action on each of their turns to remain mounted.
If you have the Ride general feat, you succeed automatically when you Command an Animal that’s your mount.
When you’re mounted, attackers can target either you or your mount. Anything that affects multiple creatures (such as an area) affects both of you as long as you’re both in the area.
You are in an attacker’s reach or range if any square of your mount is within reach or range. Because your mount is larger than you and you share its space, you have lesser cover against attacks targeting you when you’re mounted if the mount would be in the way.
Because you can’t move your body as freely while you’re riding a mount, you take a –2 circumstance penalty to Reflex saves while mounted. Additionally, the only move action you can use is the Mount action to dismount.
An action with this trait involves moving from one space to another.
Some reactions and free actions are triggered by a creature using an action with the move trait. The most notable example is Attack of Opportunity.
Actions with the move trait can trigger reactions or free actions throughout the course of the distance traveled. Each time you exit a square (or move 5 feet if not using a grid) within a creature’s reach, your movement triggers those reactions and free actions (although no more than once per move action for a given reacting creature).
If you use a move action but don’t move out of a square, the trigger instead happens at the end of that action or ability.
Some actions, such as Step, specifically state they don’t trigger reactions or free actions based on movement.

You focus on bizarre mutagenic transformations that sacrifice one aspect of a creature’s physical or psychological being in order to strengthen another.
Level 1: You start with the formulas for two 1st-level mutagens in your formula book, in addition to your other formulas.
Level 1: You gain Mutagenic Flashback.
Level 5: When using Advanced Alchemy to make mutagens during your daily preparations, you can use a batch of reagents to create any three mutagens instead of just two of the same mutagen.
Level 13: If you imbibe another mutagen while you are under the effects of a mutagen that you created, you can gain the benefits and the drawbacks of both mutagens at once, despite the fact that they both have the trait and would not normally function together. If you come under the effects of any further mutagens while benefiting from two mutagens, you lose the benefit of one of the former mutagens of your choice, while retaining the drawbacks of all the mutagens. If you are under the effects of two mutagens and you come under the effect of a non-mutagen polymorph effect, you lose the benefits of the mutagens while retaining the drawbacks of both.

Anything in plain view is observed by you.
If a creature takes measures to avoid detection, such as by using Stealth to Hide, it can become Hidden or Undetected instead of observed.
If you have another precise sense instead of or in addition to sight, you might be able to observe a creature or object using that sense instead.
You can observe a creature only with Precise senses. When Seeking a creature using only imprecise senses, it remains Hidden, rather than Observed.
The practitioners of occult traditions seek to understand the unexplainable, categorize the bizarre, and otherwise access the ephemeral in a systematic way.
Bards are the most iconic occult spellcasters, collecting strange esoterica and using their performances to influence the mind or elevate the soul, and occult Sorcerers strive to understand the mysterious power in their blood.

You surround yourself with supernatural splendor, appearing to be a god or similarly majestic being. You choose the aspects of your new majestic appearance.
This causes the targets to pay tribute to you by bowing or using some other action in keeping with your appearance.
Paying tribute is a action or action, as chosen by the creature paying tribute.
A creature under this effect must pay tribute to you at least once on each of its turns if possible.
The number of times a target must do this depends on the result of their Will save.
While affected by this spell, a creature is Fascinated by you and can’t use Hostile Actions against you.
The target is then temporarily immune for 1 minute.
Incapacitation effect: All targets of more than twice the spell level use the result one better than the save they rolled.

Palming a small, unattended object without being noticed requires you to roll a single Thievery check against the Perception DCs of all creatures who are currently observing you.

You care as much about the way you accomplish something as whether you actually accomplish it in the first place.
When you perform an action with particular bravado, you can leverage this moment of verve to perform spectacular, deadly maneuvers. This state of flair is called panache, and you are either in a state of panache or you are not.
You gain panache by successfully performing the skill check associated with specific actions that have a bit of flair, including Tumble Through and additional actions determined by your swashbuckler’s style.
At the GM’s discretion, after succeeding at a check to perform a particularly daring action, such as swinging on a chandelier or sliding down a drapery, you also gain panache if your result is high enough (typically the very hard DC for your level, but the GM can choose a different threshold).
While you have panache, you gain a +5-foot status bonus to your Speeds and gain a +1 circumstance bonus to checks to Tumble Through or to take any actions that give you panache due to your style.
The Precise Strike class feature also causes you to deal extra precision damage while you have panache.
Powerful finisher actions, including Confident Finisher, can be used only while you have panache and cause you to lose your panache.
Normally, you gain and use panache only in combat encounters; when an encounter ends, you lose panache.
| Battledancer | Panache | Get Panache from beating Will DC at Perform. |

| Braggart | Panache | Get Panache from Demoralize. |

| Critical Failure | As failure, except the target believes that everyone it sees is a mortal enemy.

The areas of the wall that contain your tunnel’s entrance appear completely normal (unless viewed with True Seeing or a similar effect), despite the tunnel’s existence. The tunnel’s entrance functions as a solid wall, but you can specify a password or a Trigger, allowing creatures to enter the tunnel freely.

When making a brief performance—one song, a quick dance, or a few jokes—you use the Perform action with the Performance skill.
This action is most useful when you want to prove your capability or impress someone quickly.
Performing rarely has an impact on its own, but it might influence the DCs of subsequent Diplomacy checks against the observers—or even change their attitudes — if the GM sees fit.
If you have Fascinating Performance, you can use Perform to inflict the Fascinated condition on an observer by beating their Will DC.
Performing gains additional traits based on the type of performance you do, as follows:
| Performance | Additional Traits |
|---|---|
| Act or perform comedy | Auditory, Linguistic, and Visual |
| Dance | Move and Visual |
| Play an instrument | Auditory and Manipulate |
| Orate or sing | Auditory and Linguistic |
| Critical Success | Your performance impresses the observers, and they’re likely to share stories of your ability. |
|---|---|
| Success | You prove yourself, and observers appreciate the quality of your performance. |
| Failure | Your performance falls flat. |
| Critical Failure | You demonstrate only incompetence. |

Key Ability Charisma.
You are skilled at a form of performance, using your talents to impress a crowd or make a living.
Some performances require you to be more than just charismatic, and if you don’t meet the demands of the art form or the audience, the GM might apply a penalty based on the relevant ability score. For example, if you’re dancing and have a negative Dexterity modifier, you might take a penalty to your attempt at dancing. Likewise, if you are orating and have a negative Intelligence modifier, you might have to hope your raw Charisma can overcome the penalties from your intellectual shortcomings—or ask someone to help write your speeches!
When you use an action that utilizes the Performance skill, it gains one or more traits relevant to the type of performance. The GM might change these depending on the circumstances, but the most common performance based traits are listed below.
| Performance | Additional Traits |

| Act or perform comedy | Auditory, Linguistic, and Visual |

You have expanded your supply of near-infinite items.
Choose a research field. Add one item from the list of options available to that field from perpetual infusions, or two items if you choose your own field.
If you have Perpetual Potency or Perpetual Perfection, you gain an additional item (or items if you chose your own field) appropriate to the field you chose, for instance a higher-level version of the bomb you chose or a new poison.
| Feat Type | Class |
|---|---|
| Level | 8 |
| Requires | Perpetual Infusions |
| Class | Alchemist |
You have learned how to create perpetual alchemical infusions that can provide a near-infinite supply of certain simple items.
You gain the ability to create two 1st-level alchemical items using Quick Alchemy without spending a batch of infused reagents. The items you can select depend on your research field and must be in your formula book.
Bomber: Choose two of the following formulas: Lesser Acid Flask, Lesser Alchemist’s Fire, Lesser Bottled Lightning, Lesser Liquid Ice, Lesser Tanglefoot Bag, Lesser Thunderstone.
Chirurgeon: Lesser Antidote and Lesser Antiplague.
Mutagenist: Choose two of the following formulas: Lesser Bestial Mutagen, Lesser Bullheaded Mutagen, Lesser Cognitive Mutagen, Lesser Juggernaut Mutagen, Lesser Silvertongue Mutagen, Lesser Quicksilver Mutagen.
Toxicologist: Choose two common 1st-level alchemical poisons.
You have perfected your perpetual infusions, allowing you to use Quick Alchemy to create even more powerful items at no cost.
The items you can select depend on your research field and must be in your formula book.
Bomber: The greater versions of the bombs you chose for Perpetual Infusions.
Chirurgeon: Greater antidote and antiplague.
Mutagenist: The greater versions of the mutagens you chose for perpetual infusions.
Toxicologist: Choose two common 11th-level or lower alchemical poisons.
Your perpetual infusions improve, allowing you to use Quick Alchemy to create more powerful items with no cost.
The items you can select depend on your research field and must be in your formula book.
Bomber: The moderate versions of the bombs you chose for Perpetual Infusions.
Chirurgeon: Moderate antidote and antiplague.
Mutagenist: The moderate versions of the mutagens you chose for perpetual infusions.
Toxicologist: Choose two common 5th-level or lower alchemical poisons.
Persistent damage comes from effects like , being on , or many other situations.
It appears as “X persistent [type] damage,” where “X” is the amount of damage dealt and “[type]” is the damage type.
Instead of taking persistent damage immediately, you take it at the end of each of your turns as long as you have the condition, rolling any damage dice anew each time.
After you take persistent damage, roll a DC 15 flat check to see if you recover from the persistent damage. If you succeed, the condition ends.
Persistent damage runs its course and automatically ends after a certain amount of time as fire burns out, blood clots, and the like. The GM determines when this occurs, but it usually takes 1 minute.
Immunities, resistances, and weaknesses all apply to persistent damage. If an effect deals initial damage in addition to persistent damage, apply immunities, resistances, and weaknesses separately to the initial damage and to the persistent damage.
Usually, if an effect negates the initial damage, it also negates the persistent damage, such as with a slashing weapon that also deals persistent bleed damage because it cut you. The GM might rule otherwise in some situations.
You can be simultaneously affected by multiple persistent damage conditions so long as they have different damage types.
If you would gain more than one persistent damage condition with the same damage type, the higher amount of damage overrides the lower amount.
The damage you take from persistent damage occurs all at once, so if something triggers when you take damage, it triggers only once; for example, if you’re Dying with several types of persistent damage, the persistent damage increases your dying condition only once.
Can be mitigated by Assist Recovery.

This Feat has special plot prerequisites that are described in Age of Ashes 5: Against the Scarlet Triad.
Requirements You are transformed into a plant by a spell.
Your plant form sprouts hundreds of spines, and your blood causes mild hallucinations in creatures exposed to it.
Each time a creature touches you, hits you with an unarmed attack, or hits you with a melee weapon attack while adjacent to you, that creature takes 1d6 piercing damage.
Increase the damage to 2d6 if the polymorph spell is 8th level or higher, or to 3d6 if it’s 10th level.
When an adjacent creature damages you with piercing or slashing damage, it must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or become Stupefied 1 (or stupefied 2 on a critical failure) until the end of its next turn.
These benefits last until you’re no longer polymorphed into a plant.

You have been turned to stone.
You can’t act, nor can you sense anything.
You become an object with a Bulk double your normal Bulk (typically 12 for a petrified Medium creature or 6 for a petrified Small creature), AC 9, Hardness 8, and the same current Hit Points you had when alive. You don’t have a Broken Threshold.
When you’re turned back into flesh, you have the same number of Hit Points you had as a statue.
If the statue is destroyed, you immediately die.

An alchemist with the Craft Philosopher’s Stone feat can create a philosopher’s stone once per month by spending 1 batch of infused reagents during their daily preparations using the Advanced Alchemy class feature. This is the only way to create a philosopher’s stone.
At a glance, a philosopher’s stone appears to be an ordinary, sooty piece of natural rock.
Breaking the rock open with a Force Open action (DC 35) reveals a cavity at the stone’s heart. The cavity is lined with a rare type of quicksilver that can transmute base metals into precious metals or create an Elixir of Rejuvenation.

Opening a lock without a key is very similar to Disabling a Device, but the DC of the Thievery check is determined by the complexity and construction of the lock you are attempting to pick.
Locks of higher qualities might require multiple successes to unlock, since otherwise even an unskilled burglar could easily crack the lock by attempting the check until they rolled a natural 20.
If you lack the proper tools, the GM might let you used improvised picks, which are treated as Shoddy tools, depending on the specifics of the lock.

| Feat | Pilgrim's Token |
You carry a small token of protection from a site holy to your faith, or you touched your religious symbol to a relic or altar at such a site.
So long as this token is in your possession, when you tie an adversary’s initiative roll, you go first.
Special If you select this feat at 1st level, you receive your pilgrim’s token for free. Alternately, if you have a religious symbol, it is already attuned, as described above.
If you select this feat at a later level, or if you lose your pilgrim’s token, you must purchase or Craft a replacement and attune it at a holy site.
Such a token usually costs at least 2 sp, and the attunement takes 10 minutes of prayer and requires a successful DC 20 Religion check. Your GM might adjust the price and DC depending on the token’s material and quality and the religious significance of the site; the more significant the location, the easier the attunement.

You can Subsist using Survival on different planes, even those without resources or natural phenomena you normally need. For instance, you can forage for food even if the plane lacks food that could normally sustain you.
A success on your check to Subsist can also reduce the damage dealt by the plane, at the GM’s discretion.

You and your allies traverse the barriers between planes of existence.
The targets move to another plane, such as the Plane of Fire, the Shadow Plane, or the Abyss.
You must have specific knowledge of the destination plane and use a magic tuning fork created from material from that plane as a focus for the spell. While the tuning forks for most prominent planes are , just like the spell Plane Shift, more obscure planes and demiplanes often have tuning forks.
The spell is highly imprecise, and you appear 1d20×25 miles from the last place one of the targets (of your choice) was located the last time that target traveled to the plane. If it’s the first time traveling to a particular plane for all targets, you appear at a random location on the plane.
Plane shift doesn’t provide a means of return travel, though casting plane shift again allows you to return to your previous plane unless there are extenuating circumstances.

Taking inspiration from verdant creatures, you transform into a Large plant battle form.
You must have space to expand into or the spell is lost.
When you cast this spell, choose arboreal, flytrap, or shambler. You can substitute a similar specific plant to turn into (such as a pitcher plant instead of a flytrap), but this has no effect on the form’s Size or statistics.
While in this form, you gain the trait.
You can Dismiss the spell.
The special statistics of a battle form can be adjusted only by circumstance bonuses, status bonuses, and penalties.
You can't cast spells, speak, or use Manipulate actions that require hands in your battle form.
Your gear is absorbed into you; the constant abilities of your gear still function, but you can’t activate any items.
You gain the following statistics and abilities regardless of which battle form you choose:
You also gain specific abilities based on the type of plant you choose:
Heightened (6th) Your battle form is Huge, and the reach of your attacks increases by 5 feet. You instead gain AC = 22 + your level, 24 temporary HP, attack modifier +21, damage bonus +16, and Athletics +22.

You gain nourishment in the same way that the plants or fungi that match your body type normally do, through some combination of photosynthesis, absorbing minerals with your roots, or scavenging decaying matter.
You typically do not need to pay for food.
If you normally rely on photosynthesis and go without sunlight for 1 week, you begin to starve. You can derive nourishment from specially formulated bottles of sunlight instead of natural sunlight, but these bottles cost 10 times as much as standard rations (or 40 sp).
Requirements A creature is undetected by one or more of your allies but isn’t undetected by you.
You indicate a creature that you can see to one or more allies, gesturing in a direction and describing the distance verbally.
That creature is Hidden to your allies, rather than Undetected.
This works only for allies who can see you and are in a position where they could potentially detect the target.
If your allies can’t hear or understand you, they must succeed at a Perception check against the creature’s Stealth DC or they misunderstand and believe the target is in a different location.

Poisons are a form of Affliction.
Unlike other forms of Affliction, poison has an effect if you are re-exposed to the same poison while already under its effects. Failing a save against a re-exposure increases the stage by 1, or 2 on a critical failure. It does not extend the maximum duration.
| Fast Recovery | Poison | Increases the effectiveness of saves. |

These effects transform the target into a new form.
A target can’t be under the effect of more than one polymorph effect at a time.
If it comes under the effect of a second polymorph effect, the second polymorph effect attempts to Counteract the first. If it succeeds, it takes effect, and if it fails, the spell has no effect on that target.
Any Strikes specifically granted by a polymorph effect are Magical.
Unless otherwise stated, polymorph spells don’t allow the target to take on the appearance of a specific individual creature, but rather just a generic creature of a general type or ancestry.
If you take on a battle form with a polymorph spell, the special statistics can be adjusted only by circumstance bonuses, status bonuses, and penalties. Unless otherwise noted, the battle form prevents you from casting spells, speaking, and using most manipulate actions that require hands. (If there’s doubt about whether you can use an action, the GM decides.)

Drawing life force into yourself, you become a beacon of positive energy.
You glow with Bright Light in a 10-foot Emanation, and you gain an internal pool of light called a luminance reservoir, which begins with a value of 4.
At the start of each of your turns, you can use a free action to increase the luminance reservoir by 4. If you do, the radius of your light increases by 10 feet.
If an creature damages you with an attack or spell while it’s within the area of your light, that creature takes positive damage equal to half your luminance reservoir value. It takes this damage only the first time it damages you in a round.
You can Dismiss this Spell. When you do, you can target a creature within your light and direct the positive energy into it. The target must be a willing living creature or an undead creature. This heals a living target or damages an undead target by an amount equal to your luminance reservoir’s value.
When you cast positive luminance, any other positive luminance spell you already had in effect ends.

You send your mind and soul into the target’s body, attempting to take control.
The target must attempt a Will save. You can choose to use the effects of a degree of success more favorable to the target if you prefer.
While you’re possessing a target, your own body is Unconscious and can’t wake up normally.
You can sense everything the possessed target does.
You can Dismiss this spell.
If the possessed body dies, the spell ends and you must succeed at a Fortitude save against your spell DC or be Paralyzed for 1 hour, or 24 hours on a critical failure.
If the spell ends during an encounter, you act just before the possessed creature’s initiative count.
Heightened (9th) The duration is 10 minutes, and you can physically enter the creature’s body, protecting your physical body while the spell lasts.
Incapacitation effect: All targets of more than twice the spell level use the result one better than the save they rolled.

Your deity blesses base metals to transform them into precious materials.
The target item transforms from its normal metal into Cold Iron, Copper, Gold, Iron, Silver, or Steel.
An item transmuted in this way deals damage according to its new material. For example, a steel sword transmuted to cold iron would deal additional damage to a creature with a weakness to cold iron.
This change is clearly magical and temporary, so the item’s monetary value doesn’t change; you couldn’t transmute copper coins to gold and use those coins to purchase something or as a cost for a spell.

Average vision is a precise sense—a sense that can be used to perceive the world in nuanced detail.
The only way to target a creature without having drawbacks is to use a precise sense.
You can usually detect a creature automatically with a precise sense unless that creature is hiding or obscured by the environment, in which case you can use the Seek basic action to better detect the creature.
You strike with flair.
When you have Panache and you Strike with an Agile or Finesse melee weapon or Agile or Finesse unarmed attack, you deal 2 additional precision damage.

Actions with this trait allow you to follow up earlier attacks.
An action with the press trait can be used only if you are currently affected by a Multiple Attack Penalty.
Some actions with the press trait also grant an effect on a failure. The effects that are added on a failure don’t apply on a critical failure.
If your press action succeeds, you can choose to apply the failure effect instead. (For example, you may wish to do this when an attack deals no damage due to resistance.)
Because a press action requires a multiple attack penalty, you can’t use one when it’s not your turn, even if you use the Ready activity.

Nature always refuses unnatural requests and might grant a different request (potentially more powerful or better fitting its character) than the one you asked for.
A primal phenomenon spell can do any of the following things.
At the GM’s discretion, you can try to use primal phenomenon to produce greater effects than these, but doing so may be dangerous, or the spell may have only a partial effect.

A spray of rainbow light beams cascades from your open hand.
Each creature in the area must roll 1d8 on the table below to see which beam affects it, then attempt a saving throw of the indicated type.
The table notes any additional traits that apply to each type of ray.
If a creature is struck by multiple beams, it uses the same d20 result for all its saving throws.
For all rays, a successful saving throw negates the effect for that creature.

You create an opaque wall of shimmering, multicolored light.
The wall is straight and vertical, stretching 60 feet long and 30 feet high.
You must form the wall in an unbroken open space so its edges don’t pass through any creatures or objects, or the spell is lost.
You can pass through the wall and ignore its effects. You can ignore the effects of passing through the wall, but it still blocks your spells, missiles, etc.
The wall sheds bright light out to 20 feet on each side (and dim light to the next 20 feet).
Creatures other than you that come into the wall’s light must attempt a Will save; they’re Dazzled for 1 round on a success, Blinded for 1 round on a failure, and blinded for 1 minute on a critical failure. They are then temporarily immune to the blinding effect for 1 hour.
A prismatic wall has seven different layers, each a different color. Red, orange, yellow, and green have the effect of a 5th-level Chromatic Wall spell of that color, and the others have the effect of a 7th-level chromatic wall spell of that color.
A creature that tries to pass through the wall must attempt a saving throw against each component wall. The effects take place simultaneously, so a creature turned to stone by the blue wall is still treated as a creature for the indigo and violet walls.
The wall as a whole is immune to counteracting effects of the wall’s level or lower; each color must be counteracted by its specific spell, as described in chromatic wall. This must be done in order (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, then violet). A given color can’t be affected until the previous color is counteracted. Counteracting a color wall removes that color’s effect from the wall, and counteracting them all ends prismatic wall.
The wall as a whole can still be counteracted with a counteracting effect higher than the wall's level.
You can Dismiss the spell.

You must stay within range of the image, and if at any point you can’t see the image, the spell ends.
Whenever you Cast a Spell other than one whose area is an Emanation, you can cause the spell effect to originate from either yourself or the image.
Because the image is an illusion, it can’t benefit from spells, though visual manifestations of the spell appear.

You’re lying on the ground.
You are Flat-Footed and take a –2 circumstance penalty to attack rolls. (You aren't Flat-Footed while Prone if you have Nimble Crawl and are legendary in Acrobatics.)
The only actions you can use while you’re prone are Crawl and Stand.
Standing up ends the prone condition.
You can Take Cover while prone to hunker down and gain cover against ranged attacks, even if you don’t have an object to get behind, gaining a +4 circumstance bonus to AC against ranged attacks (but you remain flat-footed).
If you would be knocked prone while you’re Climbing or Flying, you Fall. You can’t be knocked prone when Swimming.
You can use an action to voluntarily Drop Prone.
You usually fall prone if knocked Unconscious.
You can Kip Up to stand as a free action. This isn't a Move action, so it doesn't break the rule above.
| Nimble Crawl | Prone | If legendary Acrobatics, not flat-footed while Prone |

You add half your Strength modifier (if positive) to damage rolls with a propulsive ranged weapon.
If you have a negative Strength modifier, you add your full Strength modifier instead (which will reduce the damage, because you are adding a negative number).
You ward yourself and others.

You tap into the zeitgeist of the nearest settlement in range (if any).
You learn the name of the settlement, and you can utter a special word to learn a brief summary of one significant event happening in the settlement.
Choose one of the following words, which indicates the type of people involved and type of event you learn about.
When uttering your word, you can exclude events you already know about, whether you know about them from this spell or from other experiences.
If you cast pulse of the city again within 24 hours, you can say “echo” instead of another word to get an update on the event you learned about the last time you Cast the Spell.
Pulse of the city reveals only publicly available or observable information. You never learn clandestine movements or other details people are specifically trying to hide.
The spell is also notoriously bad at overcoming magic meant to avoid detection; it automatically fails to reveal information about events involving creatures, places, or objects affected by spells that could prevent or counteract pulse of the city (such as Nondetection).

Non-magical fires within the area are automatically extinguished.
creatures within the area take 4d8 damage (basic Fortitude save).
Choose one magical fire, fire spell, or fire item in the area and attempt to Counteract it.
If you succeed against an item, the item loses its fire properties for 10 minutes (for instance, a +1 Flaming longsword would become a +1 longsword). If the target is an artifact or similarly powerful item, you automatically fail to counteract it.
When you Sustain this Spell, you can move the area of vapor anywhere within range, but the only effect when you do so is to automatically extinguish non-magical fires.
If you have the Counterspell reaction, you can use quench to counter any spell with the fire trait instead of needing to have the triggering fire spell prepared or in your repertoire.

This weapon is long and can be used to attack creatures up to 10 feet away instead of only adjacent creatures.
For creatures that already have reach with the limb or limbs that wield the weapon, the weapon increases their reach by 5 feet.
There is no clear rules judgment on whether the extended limb or weapon of a creature with reach can be attacked using Reactions at the moment it strikes.
You can extend the range of your spells.
If the next action you use is to Cast a Spell that has a range, increase that spell’s range by 30 feet. As is standard for increasing spell ranges, if the spell normally has a range of touch, you extend its range to 30 feet.

You attempt to learn more about the target’s fate in the short term, usually within the next day for most prosaic creatures, or the next hour or less for someone likely to have multiple rapid experiences, such as someone actively adventuring.
You learn a single enigmatic word connected to the creature’s fate in that time frame.
Fate is notoriously inscrutable, and the word isn’t necessarily meant to be taken at face value, so the meaning is often clear only in hindsight.
The GM rolls a secret DC 6 flat check. If the creature’s fate is too uncertain, or on a failed flat check, the spell yields the word “inconclusive.”
Either way, the creature is then temporarily immune for 24 hours.

Prerequisites Trained in Society.
You can read lips of others nearby who you can clearly see.
When you’re at your leisure, you can do this automatically.
In encounter mode or when attempting a more difficult feat of lipreading, you’re Fascinated and Flat-Footed during each round in which you focus on lip movements, and you must succeed at a Society check (DC determined by the GM) to successfully read someone’s lips. In either case, the language read must be one that you know.
If you are deaf or hard of hearing and have Read Lips, you recognize the lip movements for the spoken form of your languages. You can also speak the spoken form of your languages clearly enough for others to understand you.

You prepare to use an action that will occur outside your turn.
Choose a single Action or Free action you can use, and designate a trigger. You can’t Ready a free action that already has a trigger.
Your turn then ends.
If the trigger you designated occurs before the start of your next turn, you can use the chosen action as a Reaction (provided you still meet the requirements to use it).
If you have a multiple attack penalty and your readied action is an Attack action, your readied attack takes the multiple attack penalty you had at the time you used Ready. This is one of the few times the multiple attack penalty applies when it’s not your turn.
The Ready activity lets the acting person choose the trigger for their readied action. However, you might sometimes need to put limits on what they can choose.
Notably, the trigger must be something that happens in the game world and is observable by the character rather than a rules concept that doesn’t exist in world. For instance, if a player says, “I Ready to shoot an arrow at her if she uses a concentrate action,” or “I Ready to attack him if he has fewer than 47 Hit Points,” find out what their character is trying to specifically observe. If they don’t have a clear answer for that, they need to adjust their action.

You call forth a ghostly lantern that guides the living toward death and the undead toward true death.
It sheds bright light in the spell’s area, and dim light to twice that area.
Though the lantern is insubstantial, you must keep a hand free to hold it or the spell ends (though using the hand for spell components doesn’t end the spell). Living creatures and in the area when you Cast the Spell, or that enter the area later, must attempt Fortitude saves.
Living creatures that fail their Fortitude saves gain only half the normal benefit from healing effects while within the area.
Undead targets that fail their Fortitude saves become Enfeebled 1 while within the area. Once a creature attempts a save against reaper’s lantern, it uses the same outcome if it leaves the area and enters it again.
Once per turn, starting on the turn after you cast reaper’s lantern, you can use a single action, which has the concentrate trait, to increase the emanation’s radius by 5 feet. When you do so, you force creatures in the area that haven’t yet attempted a save against reaper’s lantern to attempt one.

Prerequisites Trained in Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion.
Trigger A creature within line of sight casts a spell that you don’t have prepared or in your spell repertoire, or a trap or similar object casts such a spell. You must be aware of the casting.
If you are trained in the appropriate skill for the spell’s tradition and it’s a common spell of 2nd level or lower, you automatically identify it (you still roll to attempt to get a critical success, but can’t get a worse result than success).
The highest level of spell you automatically identify increases to 4 if you’re an expert, 6 if you’re a master, and 10 if you’re legendary.
The GM rolls a secret Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion check, whichever corresponds to the tradition of the spell being cast. If you’re not trained in the skill, you can’t get a result better than failure.
| Critical Success | You correctly recognize the spell and gain a +1 circumstance bonus to your saving throw or your AC against it. |
|---|---|
| Success | You correctly recognize the spell. |
| Failure | You fail to recognize the spell. |
| Critical Failure | You misidentify the spell as another spell entirely, of the GM’s choice. |

Requirements You have a focus pool, and you have spent at least 1 Focus Point since you last regained any Focus Points.
You spend 10 minutes performing deeds to restore your magical connection.
This restores 1 Focus Point to your focus pool.
The deeds you need to perform are specified in the class or ability that gives you your focus spells. These deeds can usually overlap with other tasks that relate to the source of your focus spells.
For instance, a cleric with focus spells from a good deity can usually Refocus while tending the wounds of their allies, and a wizard of the illusionist school might be able to Refocus while attempting to Identify Magic of the school.

An infusion of positive energy grants a creature continuous healing.
The target temporarily gains Regeneration 15, which restores 15 Hit Points to it at the start of each of its turns.
While it has regeneration, the target can’t die from damage and its Dying value can’t exceed 3, though if its Wounded value becomes 4 or higher, it stays Unconscious until its wounds are treated.
If the target takes or damage, its regeneration deactivates until after the end of its next turn.
Each time the creature regains Hit Points from regeneration, it also regrows one damaged or ruined organ (if any).
During the spell’s duration, the creature can also reattach severed body parts by spending an Interact action to hold the body part to the area it was severed from.
Heightened (9th) The regeneration increases to 20.

This monster regains the listed number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn.
Its Dying condition never increases beyond dying 3 as long as its regeneration is active.
If it takes damage of a type listed in the regeneration entry, its regeneration deactivates until the end of its next turn.
The regeneration is deactivated before applying any damage of a listed type, so that damage can kill the monster by bringing it to dying 4.
You release something you’re holding in your hand or hands.
This might mean dropping an item, removing one hand from your weapon while continuing to hold it in another hand, releasing a rope suspending a chandelier, or performing a similar action.
Unlike most manipulate actions, Release does not trigger reactions that can be triggered by actions with the manipulate trait (such as Attack of Opportunity). If you want to prepare to Release something outside of your turn, use the Ready activity.

It’s recommended you disallow humanoid creatures and most other bipeds as mounts, especially if they are PCs. If you choose to allow this anyway, either the rider or mount should use at least one hand to hold onto the other, and both should spend an action on each of their turns to remain mounted.

You fully re-create an object from nothing, even if the object was destroyed.
To do so, you must be able to picture the object in your mind.
Additionally, the material component must be a remnant of the item, no matter how small or insignificant (even a speck of dust that remains from Disintegrate is enough).
The spell fails if your imagination relied on too much guesswork; if the object would be too large to fit in a 5-foot cube; if the object still exists and you were simply not aware of it; or if the object is an artifact, has a level over 20, or has similar vast magical power.
The item reassembles in perfect condition. Even if your mental image was of a damaged or weathered object, the new one is in this perfected form.
If the object was magical, this spell typically restores its constant magical properties, but not any temporary ones, such as charges or one-time uses.
An item with charges or uses per day has all of its uses expended when remade, but it replenishes them normally thereafter.

You repeatedly cast the same spell while moving at half speed.
Typically, this spell is a cantrip that you want to have in effect in the event a combat breaks out, and it must be one you can cast in 2 actions or fewer.
In order to prevent fatigue due to repeated casting, you’ll likely use this activity only when something out of the ordinary occurs. (There is no rules reference for "fatigue due to repeated casting", so this may be an error.)
You can instead use this activity to continue Sustaining a Spell or Activation with a sustained duration.
Most such spells or item effects can be sustained for 10 minutes, though some specify they can be sustained for a different duration.

You conjure a towering mansion up to four stories tall and up to 300 feet on a side.
While Casting the Spell, you hold an image of the mansion and its desired appearance in your mind. The mansion can contain as many or as few rooms as you desire, and it is decorated as you imagine it. You can imagine a purpose for each room of the mansion, and the proper accouterments appear within.
Any furniture or other mundane fixtures function normally for anyone inside the mansion, but they cease to exist if taken beyond its walls.
No fixture created with this spell can create magical effects, but magical devices brought into the mansion function normally.
Your mansion contains the same types and quantities of foodstuffs and servants as created by the Magnificent Mansion spell.
Each of the mansion’s exterior doorways and windows are protected by Alarm spells. You choose whether each alarm is or as you Cast the Spell, and each has a different sound (for an audible alarm) or sensation (for a mental one), allowing you to instantly determine which portal has been used.

Once every 24 hours, you can take a period of rest (typically 8 hours), after which you regain Hit Points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum 1) times your level, and you might recover from or improve certain conditions (including Fatigued, Doomed and Drained).
Each full 24-hour period a character spends resting during Downtime allows them to recover double what they would for an 8-hour rest. They must spend this time resting in a comfortable and secure location, typically in bed.
If they spend significantly longer in bed rest—usually from a few days to a week of downtime—they recover from all damage and most nonpermanent conditions. Characters affected by Diseases, long-lasting Poisons, or similar Afflictions might need to continue attempting saves during downtime. Some curses, permanent injuries, and other situations that require magic or special care to remove don’t end automatically during long-term rest.
If you rest without any shelter or comfort, the GM may reduce the healing by half, to a minimum of 1 HP.
Sleeping in armor results in poor rest that leaves you Fatigued, or prevents you recovering from being fatigued if you already were.
The 8 hours of rest do not need to be consecutive. Characters interrupted, or taking a watch shift, during their rest may go back to sleep without resetting the clock.
If characters are attacked while sleeping, all characters roll initiative with those who are sleeping taking a -4 for being Unconscious. They do not automaticaly wake up, but may make a Perception check to be woken by noise.
If you go more than 16 hours without resting, you become Fatigued (you cannot recover from this until you rest at least 6 continuous hours).
After you rest, you make your daily preparations, which takes around 1 hour. You can prepare only if you’ve rested, and only once per day. Preparing includes the following:
If a spell’s duration says it lasts until your next daily preparations, on the next day you can refrain from preparing a new spell in that spell’s slot. (If you are a spontaneous caster, you can instead expend a spell slot during your preparations.) Doing so extends the spell’s duration until your next daily preparations. This effectively Sustains the Spell over a long period of time. If you prepare a new spell in the slot (or don’t expend a spell slot), the spell ends. You can’t do this if the spell didn’t come from one of your spell slots.
There is no specific rules statement that daily preparations must be made immediately after completing a rest, although it is generally assumed so.

Restorative magic counters the effects of toxins or conditions that prevent a creature from functioning at its best.
When you cast restoration, choose to either reduce a condition or lessen the effect of a toxin.
A creature can benefit from only one restoration spell each day, and it can’t benefit from restoration more than once to reduce the stage of the same exposure to a given toxin.
Heightened (4th) Add Drained to the list of conditions you can reduce. When you lessen a toxin, reduce the stage by two. You also gain a third option that allows you to reduce the target’s Doomed value by 1. You can’t use this to reduce a permanent doomed condition.
Heightened (6th) As the 4th-level restoration, but you can reduce a permanent doomed condition if you add a spellcasting action and a material component while Casting the Spell, during which you provide 100 gp worth of diamond dust as a cost.

Implied by Bon Mot.
The target can end the effect early with a retort to your Bon Mot. This can either be a single action that has the concentrate trait or an appropriate skill action to frame their retort. The GM determines which skill actions qualify, though they must take at least 1 action. Typically, the retort needs to use a linguistic Charisma-based skill action.

Retraining offers a way to alter some of your character choices, which is helpful when you want to take your character in a new direction or change decisions that didn’t meet your expectations.
You can retrain feats, skills, and some selectable class features. You can’t retrain your ancestry, heritage, background, class, or ability scores.
You can’t perform other downtime activities while retraining.
Retraining usually requires you to spend time learning from a teacher, whether that entails physical training, studying at a library, or falling into shared magical trances. Your GM determines whether you can get proper training or whether something can be retrained at all. In some cases, you’ll have to pay your instructor.
Some abilities can be difficult or impossible to retrain (for instance, a sorcerer can retrain their bloodline only in extraordinary circumstances).
When retraining, you generally can’t make choices you couldn’t make when you selected the original option. For instance, you can’t exchange a 2nd-level skill feat for a 4th-level one, or for one that requires prerequisites you didn’t meet at the time you took the original feat. If you don’t remember whether you met the prerequisites at the time, ask your GM to make the call.
You also can't make choices that would leave another previous choice invalid, such as retraining a choice of skill which allowed you to choose an different skill when taking a Dedication feat.
If you cease to meet the prerequisites for an ability due to retraining, you can’t use that ability. You might need to retrain several abilities in sequence in order to get all the abilities you want.
You can spend a week of downtime retraining to swap out one of your s. Remove the old feat and replace it with another of the same type. For example, you could swap a skill feat for another skill feat, but not for a wizard feat.
You can spend a week of downtime retraining to swap out one of your skill increases. Reduce your proficiency rank in the skill losing its increase by one step and increase your proficiency rank in another skill by one step. The new proficiency rank has to be equal to or lower than the proficiency rank you traded away. For instance, if your bard is a master in Performance and Stealth, and an expert in Occultism, you could reduce the character’s proficiency in Stealth to expert and become a master in Occultism, but you couldn’t reassign that skill increase to become legendary in Performance. Keep track of your level when you reassign skill increases; the level at which your skill proficiencies changed can influence your ability to retrain feats with skill prerequisites. You can also spend a week to retrain an initial trained skill you gained during character creation.
You can change a class feature that required a choice, making a different choice instead. This lets you change a druid order or a wizard school, for example. The GM will tell you how long this takes—always at least a month.
Retraining your choice of deity requires substantial downtime—in most cases, at least a month. A character who wishes to retrain into a different faith with similar concerns and domains requires less time to convert than a character moving into a radically divergent faith.
At the GM’s discretion, characters for whom divine patronage is essential but who lose faith completely can retrain into a new class. A champion might retrain as a fighter or a ranger, swapping out faith-based feats and class features for appropriate analogues. The length of downtime required in any of these cases is at the GM’s discretion, though the player and GM are advised to work together to determine a suitable time frame that does not fully interrupt play and can help tell a satisfying story.

Opening your mind to occult echoes, you gain impressions from past events that occurred in your current location.
Retrocognition reveals psychic impressions from events that occurred over the course of the last day throughout the first minute of the duration, followed by impressions from the next day back the next minute, and so on.
These echoes don’t play out like a vision but instead reveal impressions of emotions and metaphors that provide cryptic clues and details of the past.
If you witness a traumatic or turbulent event through an impression, the spell ends unless you succeed at a Will save with a DC of at least 30 and possibly as much as 50, depending on the severity of the event. The GM determines whether an event is traumatic and chooses the DC.
Heightened (8th) You gain impressions of events that occurred over the previous year for each minute you concentrate, instead of the previous day, though the details diminish, making it harder to distinguish impressions from all but the most major events.
Heightened (9th) You gain impressions of events that occurred over the previous century for each minute you concentrate, instead of the previous day, though the details diminish, making it almost impossible to distinguish impressions from all but the most major events.
Because of the default limit on sustaining a spell, you cannot see more than 10 days/years/centuries back.

You reverse gravity in the area.
Creatures and objects that aren’t secured to the ground immediately fall upward to the top of the area.
A creature might be able to Grab an Edge to arrest its fall if it falls past an appropriate surface.
If a creature falls against a solid object (such as a ceiling), it takes the appropriate amount of Falling damage and lands on the surface.
Once an object or creature reaches the top of the area, it floats, caught between the normal and reversed gravity.
The creature can move along the plane where the two forms of gravity meet.
Creatures that can levitate or fly can use those abilities to mitigate the effects of reverse gravity.
When reverse gravity ends, all creatures and objects caught in the area fall back down.
Likewise, anything that moves beyond the spell’s area is subjected to normal gravity again.

You cause the target rope to rise vertically into the air. Where it ends, an extradimensional space opens, connected to the top of the rope. This space can be reached only by climbing the rope.
The entrance to the space can’t be seen, and it can be pinpointed only by the presence of the rope.
The rope can’t be removed or hidden, though it can be detached from the extradimensional space by pulling it with 16,000 pounds of weight, critically succeeding at an Athletics check against the spell’s DC, or destroying the rope.
The space holds up to eight Medium creatures and their gear. A Large creature counts as two Medium creatures, a Huge creature counts as four Medium creatures, and a Gargantuan creature fills the space on its own.
If the rope is detached or destroyed, or if a creature attempts to enter the space that would put it over its capacity, the space begins to unravel. It disappears in 1d4 rounds, depositing the creatures within safely on the ground below.

This magical rust can affect nonferrous materials, but the target must be all or mostly metal. Skymetals such as Adamantine and Orichalcum are immune to this rust, and the GM might determine other precious materials are similarly resilient. Ultimately, the GM decides if an object or creature can be targeted with this spell.
All damage from this spell ignores Hardness.
If the spell causes Persistent Damage from rust, a creature can attempt to scrape off the rust to assist the target in recovering from the persistent damage (reducing the DC of the flat check to end persistent damage to 10 and granting an immediate flat check).
The effect of the spell depends on its target.
Creature or Hazard A creature or hazard must be made of all or mostly metal to be affected (this includes many mechanical traps). It takes 8d6 damage (basic Fortitude save), plus 2d6 persistent damage on a failed save. Touching a hazard to affect it with this spell might trigger the hazard, as determined by the GM.
Item The rust deals 2d6 damage, subject to a basic Reflex save by the creature wearing or holding the item; if the item is unattended, it automatically gets a critical failure. On a failed save, the item also takes 1d6 persistent damage.
For an attended item, this persistent damage occurs at the end of the attending creature’s turns; if the item was unattended when you Cast the Spell, the damage happens at the end of your turns.
When targeting armor someone is wearing, its Bulk is 1 higher than the listed value, since carrying armor is more cumbersome than wearing it.
Thin iron or steel items, such as weapons, have 20 HP and a Broken Threshold of 10, and thicker iron or steel items, such as most suits of armor, have 36 HP and a Broken Threshold of 18.
Heightened (+1) Increase the initial damage to creatures or hazards by 2d6, and increase the maximum Bulk of an item you can target by 1.

You repel dangers from all around you, making passage through the chosen area safe for a brief amount of time.
Anyone passing through the area gains the following benefits against harmful effects of the terrain and environment, including environmental damage, hazardous terrain, and hazards in the area.
The spell grants a +2 status bonus to AC and saves against such effects, and Resistance 5 to all damage from such effects.
Furthermore, the spell prevents anything in the area that’s prone to collapse, such as a rickety bridge or an unstable ceiling, from collapsing, except under extreme strain that would collapse a normal structure of its type.
Safe passage protects only against harm, not inconvenience, and it doesn’t reduce Difficult Terrain, remove the Concealed condition caused by precipitation, or the like, nor does it protect against creatures within the spell’s area.
Heightened (5th) The granted resistance increases to 10, and the area can be 120 feet long.

You change the sounds made by a creature or object.
Choose how you’re altering the sounds when you Cast the Spell; you can’t alter it later.
You can cause something that didn’t create a sound to make sound, alter the voice of a creature, amplify or deaden a sound, or transform one sound into another.
A creature who succeeds at a Perception check against your spell DC can determine that the sound was altered by an illusion, including hearing faint sounds if you deadened the sound, but they can’t determine the true sound unless they critically succeed at the Perception check.
You can Dismiss the spell.
Because this spell obscures sound instead of preventing it, using the spell to quiet a creature doesn’t prevent that creature from using verbal spell components, though it does prevent most effects that rely on another creature hearing them accurately. An unwilling target can attempt a Will save.

You Seek meticulously for hidden doors, concealed hazards, and so on.
You can usually make an educated guess as to which locations are best to check and move at half speed, but if you want to be thorough and guarantee you checked everything, you need to travel at a Speed of no more than 300 feet per minute, or 150 feet per minute to ensure you check everything before you walk into it.
With a successful Perception check while Searching, a character notices the presence or absence of something unusual in the area, but it doesn’t provide a comprehensive catalog of everything there. Instead, it gives a jumping-off point for closer inspection or an encounter. For instance, if an area has both a DC 30 secret door and a DC 25 trap, and a Searching character got a 28 on their Perception check, you would tell the player that their character noticed a trap in the area, and you’d give a rough idea of the trap’s location and nature. The party needs to examine the area more to learn specifics about the trap, and someone would need to Search again to get another chance to find the secret door.
In locations with many objects to search, you have to stop and spend significantly longer to search thoroughly. If an area contains many objects or something that will take a while to search (such as a cabinet full of papers), Searching would reveal the cabinet, but the PCs would have to examine it more thoroughly to check the papers. This usually requires the party to stop for a complete search.
You can always move more slowly while Searching to cover the area more thoroughly, and the Expeditious Search feat increases these maximum Speeds.
If you come across a secret door, item, or hazard while Searching, the GM will attempt a free secret check to Seek to see if you notice the hidden object or hazard. You roll a secret Perception check for a Searching character to detect any secrets they pass that’s in a place that stands out (such as near a door or a turn in a corridor), but not one that’s in a more inconspicuous place (like a random point in a long hallway) unless they are searching particularly slowly and meticulously.

You banish a container and its contents to the Ethereal Plane, where you can retrieve it from later.
The container’s physical properties—the material from which it is made, any locks, or other features—are irrelevant to the casting of this spell, but the container can’t contain any creatures.
When you Cast this Spell, the container and all its contents are transported to a random location deep in the Ethereal Plane.
Time passes normally for the container and its contents, and the environmental effects of the Ethereal Plane apply to it.
Though very unlikely, it’s possible for a creature on the Ethereal Plane to stumble upon the chest.
You can Dismiss the spell to return the chest to your current location.
If the spell ends by any other means, the container is lost on the Ethereal Plane and you can no longer recall it with this spell, though you could search for it in other ways.

Choose a secret society. You’ve learned that society’s secret cant or jargon, enabling you to share hidden messages when signing or speaking with others who’ve also learned it.
If an observer succeeds at a Perception check against your Deception DC when you do this, they realize you are passing a message but fail to discern its content, unless they subsequently succeed at a Society check against your Deception DC.
On a critical success, they learn not only the message, but also who you’re passing the message to.
Special You can take this feat multiple times. You learn the secret speech of a different society each time.

You scan an area for signs of creatures or objects.
If you’re looking for creatures, choose an area you’re scanning. If precision is necessary, the GM can have you select a 30-foot cone or a 15-foot burst within line of sight. You might take a penalty if you choose an area that’s far away.
If you’re using Seek to search for objects (including secret doors and hazards), you search up to a 10-foot square adjacent to you. The GM might determine you need to Seek as an activity, taking more actions or even minutes or hours if you’re searching a particularly cluttered area.
The GM attempts a single secret Perception check for you and compares the result to the Stealth DCs of any undetected or hidden creatures in the area, or the DC to detect each object in the area (as determined by the GM or by someone Concealing the Object).
A creature you detect might remain Hidden, rather than becoming Observed, if you’re using an imprecise sense or if an effect (such as Invisibility) prevents the subject from being observed.
You can Seek while Raging, even though it has the Concentrate trait.
| Critical Success | If you were searching for creatures, any Undetected or hidden creature you critically succeeded against becomes observed by you. If you were searching for an object, you learn its location. |

You access the Shadow Plane, using its warped nature to spread your travels.
The targets enter the edge of the Shadow Plane where it borders the Material Plane.
Targets can’t see the Material Plane while on the Shadow Plane (although elements of that plane can sometimes be a hazy reflection of the Material Plane).
While on the Shadow Plane, the targets are exposed to potential encounters with that plane’s denizens.
The shadows on the border between the planes bend space, speeding up your movement with respect to the Material Plane.
Every 3 minutes the targets travel along this border, they move as far as they would through the Material Plane in 1 hour.
At any point, a target can Dismiss the spell’s effects, although this affects only that target.
The shadow bending is inexact, so when the spell ends, the targets appear roughly 1 mile from their intended location on the Material Plane (though those who are traveling together and Dismiss the spell at the same point on the Plane of Shadow appear together).

Requirements Master in Diplomacy.
You can downplay the consequences or outrageousness of your requests using sheer brazenness and charm.
When you Request something, you reduce any DC increases for making an outrageous request by 2, and if you roll a critical failure for your Request, you get a failure instead.
While this means you can never cause your target to reduce their attitude toward you by making a Request, they eventually tire of requests, even though they still have a positive attitude toward you.

A large gem floats around the target in an erratic pattern.
Each time a creature Strikes the target, the target attempts a DC 11 flat check. On a success, the gem blocks the attack, so the attack first damages the gem and then applies any remaining damage to the target.
The gem has 5 Hit Points.
If the gem is reduced to 0 Hit Points, it shatters, immediately dealing the creature that destroyed it 1d8 slashing damage (basic Reflex save), as long as that creature is within 10 feet of the target.

You raise a magical shield of force.
This counts as using the Raise a Shield action, giving you a +1 circumstance bonus to AC until the start of your next turn, but it doesn’t require a hand to use.
While the spell is in effect, you can use the Shield Block reaction with your magic shield.
The shield has Hardness 5.
After you use Shield Block, the spell ends and you can’t cast it again for 10 minutes.
Unlike a normal Shield Block, you can use the spell’s reaction against the Magic Missile spell. (Which you couldn't normally because it only works against physical damage.)

You forge a temporary link between the target’s life essence and your own.
The target takes half damage from all effects that deal Hit Point damage, and you take the remainder of the damage.

Improvised or of dubious make, shoddy items are never available for purchase except for in the most desperate of communities.
When available, a shoddy item usually costs half the Price of a standard item, though you can never sell one in any case.
Attacks and checks involving a shoddy item take a –2 item penalty.
This penalty also applies to any DCs that a shoddy item applies to (such as AC, for shoddy armor).
A shoddy suit of armor also worsens the armor’s check penalty by 2.

Prerequisites Trained in Society.
You learn the sign languages associated with the languages you know, allowing you to sign and understand signs.
Sign languages typically require both hands to convey more complex concepts, and they are Visual rather than Auditory.
Sign language is difficult to understand during combat due to the level of attention needed, unlike basic gestures like pointing at a foe to suggest a target.
Sign language is hard to use in areas of low visibility, just like speech is difficult in a noisy environment.

The target makes no sound, preventing creatures from noticing it using hearing or other senses alone.
The target can’t use attacks, nor can it use actions with the trait.
This prevents it from casting spells that include components.
Heightened (4th) The spell effect emanates from the touched creature, silencing all sound in or passing through a 10-foot radius and preventing any auditory and sonic effects in the affected area. While within the radius, creatures are subject to the same effects as the target.

Each creature in the area becomes drowsy and might fall asleep.
A creature that falls Unconscious from this spell doesn’t fall Prone or release what it’s holding.

You continually and harmlessly slough off the top layer of your skin while new skin regenerates immediately, quickly moving damaging substances away from your body.
The flat check to remove Persistent Damage from effects that coat your skin (such as most persistent damage) is reduced to 5, and you gain a +2 status bonus to your initial save against contact poison (but not to further saves, since by that point, the toxin has already entered your system).
If you’re suffering from an effect other than persistent damage that depends on continuous contact with your skin, if that effect allows a saving throw, you receive a new saving throw against that effect at the end of each turn when you attempt your flat checks against persistent damage, and you also receive a +2 status bonus to those saving throws.
While affected by this spell, your continually shedding skin makes you much easier to Track. Anyone Tracking you gains a +2 circumstance bonus to do so, and you cannot Hide Your Tracks.

You have fewer actions.
Slowed always includes a value. When you regain your actions at the start of your turn, reduce the number of actions you regain by your slowed value.
Because slowed has its effect at the start of your turn, you don’t immediately lose actions if you become slowed during your turn.
If you are both Stunned and slowed, actions lost to the Stunned condition also count against those lost to the Slowed condition in the turn in which you recover from being Stunned.

Additive 1.
Trigger You use Quick Alchemy to craft an alchemical bomb with a level at least 1 lower than your advanced alchemy level.
You cause the bomb to create a cloud of thick smoke, in addition to its normal effects.
When thrown, the bomb creates a cloud of smoke in a 10-foot-radius burst. You choose which corner of the target’s space (or the space in which the bomb lands) the cloud is centered on.
Creatures within that area have the Concealed condition, and all other creatures are concealed to them.
The smoke lasts for 1 minute or until dissipated by a strong wind.

You can attempt to move to another place while becoming or staying undetected.
Stride up to half your Speed. (You can use Sneak while Burrowing, Climbing, Flying, or Swimming instead of Striding if you have the corresponding movement type; you must move at half that Speed.)
If you’re Undetected by a creature and it’s impossible for that creature to observe you (for a typical creature, this includes when you’re Invisible, the observer is Blinded, or you’re in darkness and the creature can’t see in darkness), for any critical failure you roll on a check to Sneak, you get a failure instead. You also continue to be undetected if you lose Cover or Greater Cover against or are no longer Concealed from such a creature.
At the end of your movement, the GM rolls your Stealth check in secret and compares the result to the Perception DC of each creature you were hidden from or undetected by at the start of your movement.
If you have cover or greater cover from the creature throughout your Stride, you gain the +2 circumstance bonus from cover (or +4 from greater cover) to your Stealth check. Because you’re moving, the bonus increase from Taking Cover doesn’t apply.
You don’t get to roll against a creature if, at the end of your movement, you neither are concealed from it nor have cover or greater cover against it. You automatically become observed by such a creature.
You can't use Concealment granted by Blur to sneak.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | You’re undetected by the creature during your movement and remain undetected by the creature at the end of it. You become observed as soon as you do anything other than Hide, Sneak, or Step. If you attempt to Strike a creature, the creature remains Flat-Footed against that attack, and you then become Observed. If you do anything else, you become observed just before you act unless the GM determines otherwise. The GM might allow you to perform a particularly unobtrusive action without being noticed, possibly requiring another Stealth check. If you speak or make a deliberate loud noise, you become Hidden instead of undetected. If a creature uses Seek and you become Hidden to it as a result, you must Sneak if you want to become undetected by that creature again. |
| Failure | A telltale sound or other sign gives your position away, though you still remain unseen. You’re Hidden from the creature throughout your movement and remain so. |
| Critical Failure | You’re spotted! You’re Observed by the creature throughout your movement and remain so. If you’re invisible and were hidden from the creature, instead of being observed you’re hidden throughout your movement and remain so. |

A somatic component is a specific hand movement or gesture that generates a magical nexus.
Somatic components, such as twisting your hand in a complex gesture, shape magical energy into directed forms. While verbal components bring forward powerful forces, somatic components compel those forces to obey the spellcaster’s wishes. Spells that have only somatic components typically have a physical effect or require touching a creature.
The spell gains the Manipulate trait and requires you to make gestures.
You can use this component while holding something in your hand, but not if you are restrained or otherwise unable to gesture freely.
Spells that require you to touch the target require a somatic component. You can do so while holding something as long as part of your hand is able to touch the target (even if it’s through a glove or gauntlet).
If you’re a Bard Casting a Spell from the Occult tradition while holding a musical instrument, you can can usually play an instrument for spells requiring somatic or material components, as long as it takes at least one of your hands to do so. If you use an instrument, you don’t need a spell component pouch or another hand free. You can usually also play an instrument for spells requiring verbal components, instead of speaking.

You can ask questions of and receive answers from plants, but the spell doesn’t make them more friendly or intelligent than normal.
Most normal plants have a distinctive view of the world around them, so they don’t recognize details about creatures or know anything about the world beyond their immediate vicinity.
Cunning plant monsters are likely to be terse and evasive, while less intelligent ones often make inane comments.

Prerequisites Trained in Crafting.
Your training focused on Crafting one particular kind of item.
Select one of the specialties listed below; you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to Crafting checks to Craft items of that type. If you are a master in Crafting, this bonus increases to +2.
If it’s unclear whether the specialty applies, the GM decides.
Some specialties might apply only partially. For example, if you were making a morningstar and had specialty in woodworking, the GM might give you half your bonus because the item requires both blacksmithing and woodworking.

You create a semicorporeal hand out of your essence that delivers Touch spells for you.
Whenever you Cast a Spell with a range of touch, you can have the hand crawl to a target within range along the ground, touch it, and then crawl back to you. (This does not mean that the hand takes the Crawl action.)
When making a melee spell attack with the hand, you use your normal bonuses.
The hand can move as far as it needs to within range.
The hand has your AC and saves, but any damage to the hand destroys it and causes you to take 1d6 damage.

You theorize that spell slots are a shorthand for an underlying energy that powers all spellcasting, and you’ve found a way to tinker with the hierarchy of spell slots, combining them to fuel more powerful spells.
When you make your daily preparations, you can trade two spell slots of the same level for a bonus spell slot of up to 2 levels higher than the traded spell slots.
You can exchange as many spell slots as you have available.
Bonus spell slots must be of a level you can normally cast, and each bonus spell slot must be of a different spell level.
You can also trade any spell slot for two additional cantrips, though you cannot trade more than one spell slot at a time for additional cantrips in this way.

You ward a creature against the effects of a single spell.
Choose a spell and name it aloud as part of the verbal component.
Spell immunity attempts to Counteract that spell whenever spell immunity’s target is the target of the named spell or in that spell’s area.
Successfully counteracting a spell that targets an area or multiple targets with spell immunity negates the effects only for the target affected by spell immunity.
Note that the target does not have to be willing, so you could name a healing spell.

You don’t accept the fact that once spells are prepared, they can’t be changed until your next daily preparation, and you have uncovered a shortcut allowing you to substitute new spells for those you originally prepared.
You can spend 10 minutes to empty one of your prepared spell slots and prepare a different spell from your spellbook in its place.
If you are interrupted during such a swap, the original spell remains prepared and can still be cast. You can try again to swap out the spell later, but you must start the process over again.

This abjuration reflects spells cast at you back at their caster.
When a spell targets you, you can spend a reaction to attempt to reflect it.
This uses the rules for Counteract the spell, but if the spell is successfully counteracted, the effect is turned back on the caster.
Whether or not the counteract attempt is successful, spell turning then ends.
Spell turning can’t affect spells that aren’t targeted (such as area spells).
If spell turning reflects a spell back at a caster who is also under the effect of spell turning, their spell turning can attempt to reflect their own spell back at you again; if they do so, their counteract attempt automatically succeeds.

You form a spiritual link with another creature, allowing you to take in its pain.
When you Cast this Spell and at the start of each of your turns, if the target is below maximum Hit Points, it regains 2 Hit Points (or the difference between its current and maximum Hit Points, if that’s lower).
You lose as many Hit Points as the target regained.
This is a spiritual transfer, so no effects apply that would increase the Hit Points the target regains or decrease the Hit Points you lose.
This transfer also ignores any temporary Hit Points you or the target have.
Since this effect doesn’t involve positive or negative energy, spirit link works even if you or the target is .
While the duration persists, you gain no benefit from Regeneration or Fast Healing.
You can Dismiss this spell, and if you’re ever at 0 Hit Points, spirit link ends automatically.

Requirement You have a deity.
A Medium guardian made of magical force appears and attacks foes you designate within range.
The spiritual guardian is translucent and appears to be holding your deity’s favored weapon.
When you Cast the Spell, the spiritual guardian appears in an unoccupied space next to a foe of your choice within range and makes a Strike against it.
Each time you Sustain the Spell, you can move the spiritual guardian to an unoccupied space next to a target within range (if necessary) and make a Strike with it.
The guardian uses and contributes to your multiple attack penalty.
Alternatively, when you Sustain the Spell, you can have the guardian move adjacent to an ally and protect that ally. If you do, each time the ally would take damage, the guardian takes the first 10 damage instead of your ally.
It continues to do so until you move the guardian to attack an enemy or defend a different ally, or until the guardian is destroyed (it has 50 Hit Points and can’t recover Hit Points by any means).
The guardian can’t usually take damage except when protecting an ally, though Disintegrate automatically destroys it if it hits the spiritual guardian’s AC of 25.
The guardian’s Strikes are melee spell attacks.
Regardless of the appearance of the guardian’s weapon, the guardian deals damage equal to 2d8 plus your spellcasting ability modifier, but you can deal damage of the type normally dealt by the weapon it holds instead of force damage.
No other traits or statistics of the weapon apply, and even a ranged weapon attacks adjacent creatures only.
Despite making a spell attack, the spiritual guardian’s weapon is a weapon for the purposes of triggers, resistances, and so forth.
The guardian takes up space and allies can use it when Flanking, but it doesn’t have any other attributes a creature would normally have aside from Hit Points, and creatures can move through its space without hindrance.
The guardian can’t make any attack other than its Strike, and feats or spells that affect weapons or enhance allies do not apply to the guardian.
Heightened (+2) The guardian’s damage increases by 1d8, and its Hit Points increase by 20.

Requirements You have a deity.
A weapon made of pure magical force materializes and attacks foes you designate within range.
This weapon has a ghostly appearance and manifests as your deity’s favored weapon.
When you cast the spell, the weapon appears next to a foe you choose within range and makes a Strike against it.
Each time you Sustain the Spell, you can move the weapon to a new target within range (if needed) and Strike with it.
The spiritual weapon uses and contributes to your multiple attack penalty.
The weapon’s Strikes are melee spell attacks.
Regardless of its appearance, the weapon deals force damage equal to 1d8 plus your spellcasting ability modifier. You can deal damage of the type normally dealt by the weapon instead of force damage (or any of the available damage types for a versatile weapon).
No other statistics or traits of the weapon apply, and even a ranged weapon attacks adjacent creatures only.
Despite making a spell attack, the spiritual weapon is a weapon for purposes of triggers, resistances, and so forth.
The weapon doesn’t take up space, grant flanking, or have any other attributes a creature would.
The weapon can’t make any attack other than its Strike, and feats or spells that affect weapons do not apply to it.
Heightened (+2) The weapon’s damage increases by 1d8.

Your faith in your deity is represented in an extremely unusual way that some might call heretical.
When you select this feat, you should detail the fundamental tenets of your splinter faith, though it shouldn’t affect the deity’s edicts or anathema.
Choose four domains. These domains must be chosen from among your deity’s domains, your deity’s alternate domains, and up to one domain that isn’t on either list and isn’t anathematic to your deity.
Any domain spell you cast from a domain that isn’t on either of your deity’s lists is always heightened to 1 level lower than usual for a focus spell.
For the purpose of abilities that depend on your deity’s domains, the four domains you chose are your deity’s domains, and any of your deity’s domains you didn’t choose are now among your deity’s alternate domains.
Special Unless you take this feat at 1st level, changing the way you relate to your deity requires Retraining. If you take this feat and previously benefited from any effect that requires a domain your splinter faith doesn’t include, such as a domain spell from Domain Initiate, you lose that effect.

You try to take a small object from another creature without being noticed.
Typically, you can Steal only an object of negligible Bulk, and you automatically fail if the creature who has the object is in combat or on guard. If you have Pickpocket and are a master in Thievery, you do not automatically fail, but you can't steal items that are noticable or actively wielded and you get a -5 penalty. If you have Legendary Thief, you can steal noticeable and actively wielded items but you get a -5 penalty and it takes 1 minute, during which you must remain hidden.
Attempt a Thievery check to determine if you successfully Steal the object. The DC to Steal is usually the Perception DC of the creature wearing the object.
This assumes the object is worn but not closely guarded (like a loosely carried pouch filled with coins, or an object within such a pouch). If the object is in a pocket or similarly protected, you take a –5 penalty to your Thievery check unless you have Pickpocket.
The GM might increase the DC of your check if the nature of the object makes it harder to steal (such as a very small item in a large pack, or a sheet of parchment mixed in with other documents).
You might also need to compare your Thievery check result against the Perception DCs of observers other than the person wearing the object. The GM may increase the Perception DCs of these observers if they’re distracted. If you have Subtle Theft, the observers take -2 circumstance to their Perception DCs.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | You steal the item without the bearer noticing, or an observer doesn’t see you take or attempt to take the item. |
| Failure | The item’s bearer notices your attempt before you can take the object, or an observer sees you take or attempt to take the item. The GM determines the response of any creature that notices your theft. |

A combination of additional viscosity and careful application keeps your weapons poisoned even when suffering significant wear and tear.
If your Strike with a poisoned weapon would expend its poison without your target attempting an initial save (due to resistance or your Strike being a critical failure, for example), attempt a DC 5 flat check. On a success, your weapon remains poisoned.

While stone is not intelligent, you speak with the natural spirits of the stone, which have a personality colored by the type of stone, as well as by the type of structure the stone is part of, for worked stone.
A stone’s perspective, perception, and knowledge give it a worldview different enough from a human’s that it doesn’t consider the same details important. Stones can mostly answer questions about creatures that touched them in the past and what is concealed beneath or behind them.

A massive storm cloud forms in the air in a 360-foot burst.
Beneath it, rain begins to fall, and gales impose a –4 circumstance penalty to physical ranged attacks and weapon ranged attacks, and the air in the area becomes greater Difficult Terrain for flying creatures.
When you Cast this Spell and the first time each round you Sustain the Spell, you can choose one of the following storm effects.
You can’t choose the same effect twice in a row.

You cause the areas to appear to swell, bend, and break, twisting together in a bizarre spatial geometry.
The cubes of the spell’s area can’t be adjacent to one another.
A creature must attempt a Will save if it’s in one of the cubes when you Cast the Spell, or if it later enters one of the areas, with the following effects.
A creature interacting with the illusion can also attempt a Will save to disbelieve the illusion, as normal.
If the creature passes their save, they disbelieve the illusion.
If they fail, all terrain in the cubes is Difficult Terrain for the creature, including the air if the creature is flying, walls if it’s climbing, and so on. When the creature would exit one of the cubes, it exits from one randomly determined by the GM. This is a effect. It can exit from any edge of that cube it chooses.
When selecting a random cube, the GM excludes any that don’t match the creature’s terrain; for instance, if the creature were exiting along the ground, the GM would exclude any cube that didn’t have an exit on the ground.

Prerequisites Trained in Society.
You know about life on the streets and feel the pulse of your local settlement.
You can use your Society modifier instead of your Diplomacy modifier to Gather Information.
In any settlement you frequent regularly, you can use the Recall Knowledge action with Society to know the same sorts of information that you could discover with Diplomacy to Gather Information. The DC is usually significantly higher, but you know the information without spending time gathering it. If you fail to recall the information, you can still subsequently attempt to Gather Information normally.

Strength measures your character’s physical power.
Strength is important if your character plans to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
Your Strength modifier gets added to melee damage rolls and determines how much your character can carry.
You can carry an amount of Bulk equal to 5 plus your Strength modifier without penalty; if you carry more, you gain the encumbered condition. You can’t hold or carry more Bulk than 10 plus your Strength modifier. If you are carrying more weight than you can manage, you're Encumbered.
Strength governs Athletics.
Being Enfeebled, Sickened or Frightened reduces your Strength rolls.

Prerequisites Trained in Religion.
You’ve researched many faiths enough to recognize notions about them that are unlikely to be true.
If you roll a critical failure at a Religion check to Decipher Writing of a religious nature or to Recall Knowledge about the tenets of faiths, you get a failure instead.
When attempting to Recall Knowledge about the tenets of your own faith, if you roll a failure, you get a success instead, and if you roll a success, you get a critical success instead.

You’ve become senseless.
You can’t act while stunned.
Stunned usually includes a value, which indicates how many total actions you lose, possibly over multiple turns, from being stunned.
Each time you regain actions (such as at the start of your turn), reduce the number you regain by your stunned value, then reduce your stunned value by the number of actions you lost. For example, if you were stunned 4, you would lose all 3 of your actions on your turn, reducing you to stunned 1; on your next turn, you would lose 1 more action, and then be able to use your remaining 2 actions normally.
Stunned might also have a duration instead of a value, such as “stunned for 1 minute.” In this case, you lose all your actions for the listed duration.
Stunned overrides Slowed. If the duration of your stunned condition ends while you are slowed, you count the actions lost to the stunned condition toward those lost to being slowed. So, if you were stunned 1 and slowed 2 at the beginning of your turn, you would lose 1 action from stunned, and then lose only 1 additional action by being slowed, so you would still have 1 action remaining to use that turn.
Your thoughts and instincts are clouded.
Stupefied always includes a value. You take a status penalty equal to this value on Intelligence-, Wisdom-, and Charisma-based checks and DCs, including Will saving throws, spell attack rolls, spell DCs, and skill checks that use these ability scores.
Any time you attempt to Cast a Spell while stupefied, the spell is disrupted unless you succeed at a flat check with a DC equal to 5 + your stupefied value.

You implant a subconscious suggestion deep within the target’s mind for them to follow when a Trigger you specify occurs.
You suggest a course of action to the target.
Your directive must be phrased in such a way as to seem like a logical course of action to the target, and it can’t be selfdestructive or obviously against the target’s self-interest.
The target must attempt a Will save.
Incapacitation effect: All targets of more than twice the spell level use the result one better than the save they rolled.

|---|---|
| Success | The target is unaffected and thinks you were talking to them normally, not casting a spell on them. |
| Failure | The suggestion remains in the target’s subconscious until the next time you prepare. If the trigger occurs before then, the target immediately follows your suggestion. The effect has a duration of 1 minute, or until the target has completed a finite suggestion or the suggestion becomes self-destructive or has other obvious negative effects. |

An action might allow you to use a simpler action—usually one of the Basic Actions—in a different circumstance or with different effects.
This subordinate action still has its normal traits and effects, but is modified in any ways listed in the larger action. For example, an activity that tells you to Stride up to half your Speed alters the normal distance you can move in a Stride. The Stride would still have the move trait, would still trigger reactions that occur based on movement, and so on.
The subordinate action doesn’t gain any of the traits of the larger action unless specified.
The action that allows you to use a subordinate action doesn’t require you to spend more actions or reactions to do so; that cost is already factored in.
Using an activity is not the same as using any of its subordinate actions. For example, the quickened condition you get from the haste spell lets you spend an extra action each turn to Stride or Strike, but you couldn’t use the extra action for an activity that includes a Stride or Strike. As another example, if you used an action that specified, “If the next action you use is a Strike,” an activity that includes a Strike wouldn’t count, because the next thing you are doing is starting an activity, not using the Strike basic action.
You try to provide food and shelter for yourself, and possibly others as well.
This typically uses Society if you're in a settlement or Survival if you're in the wild.
The GM determines the DC based on the nature of the place where you’re trying to Subsist. You might need a minimum proficiency rank to Subsist in particularly strange environments.
Unlike most downtime activities, you can Subsist after 8 hours or less of exploration, but if you do, you take a –5 penalty.
| Critical Success | You either provide a subsistence living for yourself and one additional creature, or you improve your own food and shelter, granting yourself a comfortable living. |
|---|---|
| Success | You find enough food and shelter with basic protection from the elements to provide you a subsistence living. |
| Failure | You’re exposed to the elements and don’t get enough food, becoming Fatigued until you attain sufficient food and shelter. |
| Critical Failure | You attract trouble, eat something you shouldn’t, or otherwise worsen your situation. You take a –2 circumstance penalty to checks to Subsist for 1 week. You don’t find any food at all; if you don’t have any stored up, you’re in danger of starving or dying of Thirst if you continue failing. |
The Forager feat can reduce your chances of failing to subsist and allow you to provide a living for more creatures.
The Planar Survival feat can allow you to use this to survive on a hostile plane.

You conjure a celestial to fight on your behalf.
This works like Summon Animal, except you summon a common creature that has the trait and whose level is 5 or lower.
You can’t summon a creature unless its alignment is one of your deity’s preferred alignments (or, if you don’t have a deity, is within one step of your alignment).
At the GM’s discretion, some deities might restrict specific types of celestials, even if their alignments match.

A creature called by a conjuration spell or effect gains the summoned trait.
A summoned creature can’t summon other creatures, create things of value, or cast spells that require a cost.
It has the Minion trait.
If it tries to cast a spell of equal or higher level than the spell that summoned it, the spell fails and the summon spell ends.
Otherwise, it uses the standard abilities for a creature of its kind.
It generally attacks your enemies to the best of its abilities.
If you can communicate with it, you can attempt to command it, but the GM determines the degree to which it follows your commands.
Immediately when you finish Casting the Spell, the summoned creature uses its 2 actions for that turn.
Summoned creatures can be banished by various spells and effects. They are automatically banished if reduced to 0 Hit Points or if the spell that called them ends.
You harness the power of the sun and other light sources, and punish undead.

You have refined your palate and have a discerning sense of taste that can detect abnormalities in the flavor and texture of food and beverages.
When eating food or drinking a beverage, you automatically attempt to identify the ingredients, which might alert you to the presence of alterations or additives, such as poisons.
The GM rolls a secret Perception check using the poison’s level to determine the DC; on a success, you learn that the food or drink was poisoned, but not the specific poison used.
If you lick or taste something while Investigating or attempting to Recall Knowledge to identify something, if the taste would provide relevant additional information (at the GM’s discretion), you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to your check.

The monster attempts to swallow a creature of the listed size or smaller that it has grabbed in its jaws or mouth.
If a swallowed creature is of the maximum size listed, the monster can’t use Swallow Whole again. If the creature is smaller than the maximum, the monster can usually swallow more creatures; the GM determines the maximum.
The monster attempts an Athletics check opposed by the grabbed creature’s Reflex DC. If it succeeds, it swallows the creature. The monster’s mouth or jaws no longer grab a creature it has swallowed, so the monster is free to use them to Strike or Grab once again. The monster can’t attack creatures it has swallowed.
A swallowed creature is Grabbed, is Slowed 1, and has to hold its breath or start Suffocating.
The swallowed creature takes the listed amount of damage when first swallowed and at the end of each of its turns while it’s swallowed.
If the victim Escapes this ability’s grabbed condition, it exits through the monster’s mouth. This frees any other creature grabbed in the monster’s mouth or jaws.
A swallowed creature can attack the monster that has swallowed it, but only with unarmed attacks or with weapons of light Bulk or less. The engulfing creature is Flat-Footed against the attack.
If the monster takes piercing or slashing damage equaling or exceeding the listed Rupture value from a single attack or spell, the engulfed creature cuts itself free.
A creature that gets free by either Escaping or cutting itself free can immediately breathe and exits the swallowing monster’s space.
If the monster dies, a swallowed creature can be freed by creatures adjacent to the corpse if they spend a combined total of 3 actions cutting the monster open with a weapon or unarmed attack that deals piercing or slashing damage.

You have come to see the overlap between two deities’ teachings.
Choose a second deity. You must meet their alignment requirements, and you are subject to their edicts and anathema.
If you are a Cloistered Cleric, select one of that deity’s domains, gaining the benefits of the Expanded Domain Initiate feat with that domain.
If you are a Warpriest, you gain the favored weapon of that deity as a second favored weapon, and it gains the benefits of feats and abilities you have that affect your deity’s favored weapon, such as Deadly Simplicity.
If you have a different doctrine than cloistered cleric or warpriest, either apply whichever of the above options is most appropriate for your doctrine, or, at the GM’s discretion, add a benefit from the second deity more closely tied to your doctrine.

| Duration | 10 minutes |

You grant the target corpse a semblance of life, which it uses to speak the answers to three questions posed to it.
This spell calls on the physical body’s latent memories rather than summoning back the deceased’s spirit, so the corpse must be mostly intact for the spell to function.
The more damage the corpse has taken, the more inaccurate or patchwork its answers are, and it must have a throat and mouth to speak at all.
If anyone has previously cast this spell on the corpse in the last week, the spell automatically fails.
The corpse can attempt a Will save to resist answering the questions using the statistics of the original creature at its time of death, with the following effects:
| Critical Success | The target can lie or refuse to answer your questions, and the target’s spirit haunts you for 24 hours, bothering you and causing you to be unable to gain any rest for that time. |
|---|---|
| Success | The target can provide false information or refuse to answer your questions. |
| Failure | The target must answer truthfully, but its answers can be brief, cryptic, and repetitive. It can still mislead you or attempt to stall so that the spell’s duration runs out before you can ask all your questions. |
| Critical Failure | As failure, but the target’s answers are more direct and less repetitive, though still cryptic. It takes a –2 status penalty to Deception checks to deceive or mislead you. |

You and the targets are instantly transported to any location within range, as long as you can identify the location precisely both by its position relative to your starting position and by its appearance (or other identifying features).
Incorrect knowledge of the location’s appearance usually causes the spell to fail, but it could instead lead to teleporting to an unwanted location or some other unusual mishap determined by the GM.
Teleport is not precise over great distances. The targets appear at a distance from the intended destination equal to roughly 1 percent of the total distance traveled, in a direction determined by the GM.
For short journeys, this lack of precision is irrelevant, but for long distances this could be up to 1 mile.
Heightened (7th) You and the other targets can travel to any location within 1,000 miles.
Heightened (8th) You and the other targets can travel to any location on the same planet. If you travel more than 1,000 miles, you arrive only 10 miles off target.
Heightened (9th) You and the other targets can travel to any location on another planet within the same solar system. Assuming you have accurate knowledge of the location’s position and appearance, you arrive on the new planet 100 miles off target.
Heightened (10th) As the 9th-level version, but you and the other targets can travel to any planet within the same galaxy.

This spell allows you to change between three versions of yourself of different ages: a maiden (young adult), a mother (adult), or a matriarch (elderly).
Choose one when you Cast the Spell.
While the spell lasts, you can change the age to any of the three or to your natural age with a single action, which has the trait.
Your form always looks like you regardless of the age, and creatures who know you still recognize you and can tell your age is different.
Threefold aspect alters your physical appearance and personality to present an authentic version of yourself at various ages.
This grants you a +4 status bonus to Deception checks to pass as the chosen age, and you can add your level as a proficiency bonus to these checks even if you’re untrained.
Furthermore, unless a creature specifically uses a Seek action or otherwise carefully examines you, it doesn’t get a chance to notice that you aren’t at your true age.

You’ve taken your share of licks while scurrying around the battlefield and know how to defend yourself against opportunistic attackers.
Your movement ends only when you critically fail an Acrobatics check to Tumble Through an enemy’s space (or when you don’t have enough Speed to move all the way through its space).
You still trigger reactions on a failure to Tumble Through, but you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to AC against attacks that you trigger in this way.

You can withstand more punishment than most before succumbing.
Increase your maximum Hit Points by your level.
This is recalculated whenever your level increases; ie, you gain 1 extra hit point per level.
The DC of your Recovery Checks is equal to 9 plus your Dying value.
| Feat Type | General |
|---|---|
| Level | 1 |
| Requires |
You specialize in toxins and venoms of all types.
Level 1: You start with the formulas for two common 1st-level alchemical poisons in your formula book, in addition to your other formulas.
Level 1: You can apply an injury poison you’re holding to a weapon you’re wielding as a single action, rather than as a 2-action activity, and you can change the DCs of your infused poisons to your class DC if it’s higher.
Level 5: When using Advanced Alchemy to make poisons during your daily preparations, you can spend one batch of reagents to create three poisons in any combination, instead of just two of the same poison.
Level 15: You can apply two different injury poisons to the same weapon, though not to a piece of ammunition. The two poisons can be up to six levels lower than your level, and you can’t use the poisons made without spending a batch of infused reagents via Perpetual Infusions.
Applying the two poisons requires a separate action to apply each poison. Once completed, you combine the two poisons on the weapon into a double poison with the lower of the two poisons’ DCs. This double poison is only virulent if both poisons were virulent, and if the poisons have a different number of stages, the double poison has a number of stages equal to the poison with the lower number of stages. The target takes the effects of both poisons for its current stage.
You follow tracks, moving at up to half your travel Speed.
After a successful check to Track, you can continue following the tracks at half your Speed without attempting additional checks for up to 1 hour.
In some cases, you might Track in an encounter. In this case, Track is a single action and doesn’t have the exploration trait, but you might need to roll more often because you’re in a tense situation.
The GM determines how often you must attempt this check. You attempt your Survival check when you start Tracking, once every hour you continue tracking, and any time something significant changes in the trail.
The GM determines the DCs for such checks, depending on the freshness of the trail, the weather, and the type of ground. If whatever you are tracking used Cover Tracks, their Survival DC is used instead if it is higher.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | You find the trail or continue to follow the one you’re already following. |
| Failure | You lose the trail but can try again after a 1-hour delay. |
| Critical Failure | You lose the trail and can’t try again for 24 hours. |

You spend time teaching an animal to do a certain action.
You can either select a basic action the animal already knows how to do (typically those listed in the Command an Animal action) or attempt to teach the animal a new basic action.
The GM determines the DC of any check required and the amount of time the training takes (usually at least a week).
It’s usually impossible to teach an animal a trick that uses critical thinking.
If you’re expert, master, or legendary in Nature, you might be able to train more unusual creatures, at the GM’s discretion.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | The animal learns the action. If it was an action the animal already knew, you can Command the Animal to take that action without attempting a Nature check. If it was a new basic action, add that action to the actions the animal can take when Commanded, but you must still roll. |
| Failure | The animal doesn’t learn the trick. |

You warp the structure of earthen material, turning rock into mud or mud into rock.
Choose one of these two options when you Cast the Spell.
Rock to Mud You transform non-magical, unworked, and unattended stone in the area into an equal volume of mud.
If you Cast this Spell on a stone floor, it becomes Difficult Terrain; if the resulting mud is at least 3 feet deep, it is greater difficult terrain, or the creature can try to Swim through it (DC 10 Athletics). If the mud is deep enough that a creature can’t reach the bottom, the creature must Swim to move through it.
If you Cast this Spell on a ceiling, the falling mud deals 8d6 bludgeoning damage (basic Reflex save) and spreads out, creating difficult terrain in an area 10 feet larger in radius than the original spell’s area.
Once the rock is transformed into mud, the mud is non-magical and remains until natural conditions cause it to dry out or otherwise disperse.
Mud to Rock Mud in the area turns into unworked stone.
If creatures are in the mud when it is transformed to stone, they must attempt a Reflex saving throw.
| Critical Success | The creature escapes the mud and is atop the stone, unaffected. |
|---|---|
| Success | The creature climbs out of the mud as it turns to rock and is Prone atop the stone. |

You spend 10 minutes treating one injured living creature (targeting yourself, if you so choose).
The target is then temporarily immune to Treat Wounds actions for 1 hour, but this interval overlaps with the time you spent treating (so a patient can be treated once per hour, not once per 70 minutes). Continual Recovery reduces this to only 10 minutes.
The Medicine check DC is usually 15, though the GM might adjust it based on the circumstances, such as treating a patient outside in a storm, or treating magically cursed wounds.
If you’re an expert in Medicine, you can instead attempt a DC 20 check to increase the Hit Points regained by 10; if you’re a master of Medicine, you can instead attempt a DC 30 check to increase the Hit Points regained by 30; and if you’re legendary, you can instead attempt a DC 40 check to increase the Hit Points regained by 50. The damage dealt on a critical failure remains the same.
If you succeed at your check, you can continue treating the target to grant additional healing. If you treat them for a total of 1 hour, double the Hit Points they regain from Treat Wounds.
The result of your Medicine check determines how many Hit Points the target regains.
If you have Natural Medicine, you can use Nature instead of Medicine.
Battle Medicine can allow you to treat wounds in Encounter Mode.

You transform into a Large tree.
Perception checks don’t reveal your true nature, but a successful Nature or Survival check against your spell DC reveals that you appear to be a tree that is strangely new to the area.
While in tree form, you can observe everything around you, but you can’t act other than to end the spell, and your turn, by using a single action, which has the trait.
As a tree, your AC is 20, and only status bonuses, status penalties, circumstance bonuses, and circumstance penalties affect you.

Tremorsense allows a monster to feel the vibrations through a solid surface caused by movement.
It is an Imprecise sense with a limited range (listed in the ability).
Tremorsense functions only if the monster is on the same surface as the subject, and only if the subject is moving along (or burrowing through) the surface.
Prerequisites Trained in Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion.
You examine a magic item you normally couldn’t use in an effort to fool it and activate it temporarily. For example, this might allow a fighter to cast a spell from a wand or allow a wizard to cast a spell that’s not on the arcane list using a scroll.
You must know what activating the item does, or you can’t attempt to trick it.
Attempt a check using the skill matching the item’s magic tradition, or matching a tradition that has the spell on its list, if you’re trying to cast a spell from the item. The relevant skills are Arcana for arcane, Nature for primal, Occultism for occult, Religion for divine, or any of the four for an item that has the magical trait and not a tradition trait.
The GM determines the DC based on the item’s level (possibly adjusted depending on the item or situation).
If you activate a magic item that requires a spell attack roll or spell DC and you don’t have the ability to cast spells of the relevant tradition, use your level as your proficiency bonus and the highest of your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifiers. If you’re a master in the appropriate skill for the item’s tradition, you instead use the trained proficiency bonus, and if you’re legendary, you instead use the expert proficiency bonus.
| Critical Success | |
|---|---|
| Success | For the rest of the current turn, you can spend actions to activate the item as if you could normally use it. |
| Failure | You can’t use the item or try to trick it again this turn, but you can try again on subsequent turns. |
| Critical Failure | You can’t use the item, and you can’t try to trick it again until your next daily preparations. |

You rarely settle for being in just one place.
Choose a location within 100 feet of the target that the target can see.
You create an illusion of yourself there that only it can see and that mimics all your actions.
The target must attempt a Will save.
| Critical Success | The target is unaffected. |
|---|---|
| Success | The target believes you’re in the designated location and can’t see you in your actual location. The target automatically disbelieves the illusion when you use an action that doesn’t make sense in the illusion’s position, or if the target attacks, touches, Seeks, or otherwise engages with the illusion. If you use a Hostile Action against the target, the spell ends. |
| Failure | As success, but the target must succeed at a Will save to disbelieve the illusion when one of the listed events occurs. |

If a spell is meant to respond only to certain events or under certain conditions—such as magic mouth—it might require you to set a trigger. This is a simple sensory cue that causes the spell to activate.
The spell activates as a Reaction when the spell’s sensor observes something that fits its trigger. Depending on the spell, the trigger might be the presence of a type of creature, such as “red-haired dwarven women,” or it could be an observed action, such as “whenever someone enters the spell’s area.”
Disguises and illusions fool the spell as long as they appear to match its parameters.
For a spell to detect something visually, the spell’s origin point must have line of sight.
Darkness doesn’t prevent this, but invisibility does, as does a successful Stealth check to Hide (against the spell’s DC).
For auditory detection, line of sight isn’t necessary, though the sound must be audible at the spell’s origin point. A Stealth check to Sneak can fool the sensor.
Requirements You have at least one hand free. Your target can’t be more than one size larger than you unless you have Titan Wrestler, in which case it can be two or three sizes larger depending on your proficiency in Athletics.
You try to knock an opponent to the ground.
Attempt an Athletics check against the target’s Reflex DC.
| Critical Success | The target falls and lands Prone and takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage. |

You can use this weapon to Trip with the Athletics skill even if you don’t have a free hand.
This uses the weapon’s reach (if different from your own) and adds the weapon’s item bonus to attack rolls as an item bonus to the Athletics check.
If you critically fail a check to Trip using the weapon, you can drop the weapon to take the effects of a failure instead of a critical failure.

Prerequisites Greater Debilitating Bomb
Ever inventive, you have discovered increasingly devastating ways for your bombs to impede and hamper your foes.
When you use Debilitating Bomb, add the following to the list of effects you can choose from: Enfeebled 2, Stupefied 2, or a –15-foot status penalty to Speeds.
If you instead apply one of the effects listed in Debilitating Bomb, the target avoids the effect only if the result of its saving throw is a critical success.

You Stride up to your Speed.

Many things happen automatically at the start of your turn— it’s a common point for tracking the passage of time for effects that last multiple rounds.
At the start of each of your turns, take these steps in any order you choose:
The last step of starting your turn is always the same: Regain your 3 actions and 1 reaction.
If you haven’t spent your reaction from your last turn, you lose it—you can’t “save” actions or reactions from one turn to use during the next turn.
If a condition prevents you from being able to act, you don’t regain any actions or your reaction.
Some abilities or conditions (such as quickened and slowed) can change how many actions you regain and whether you regain your reaction.
If you lose actions and gain additional actions (such as if you’re both quickened and slowed), you choose which actions to lose.
If you're Petrified or Unconscious, you can't act.
If you're Quickened, you gain one extra action at the start of your turn. There may be restrictions on what this action can be used for.
If you're Stunned, for each action you would otherwise gain, reduce your Stunned value by 1 and do not gain that action. When your Stunned value reaches 0, gain actions as normal.
If you're Slowed, reduce the number of actions you gain by your slowed value. Do this after counting off actions lost to being stunned. In the turn when your Stunned value reaches 0, count any actions lost to being Stunned as also lost to being Slowed.
You can use actions in any order you wish during your turn, but you have to complete one action or activity before beginning another; for example, you can’t use a single action in the middle of performing a 2-action activity.
What actions you can use often depend on your class features, skills, feats, and items, but there are default actions anyone can use, described in Basic Actions.
Some effects might prevent you from acting. If you can’t act, you can’t use any actions, including reactions and free actions.
If you begin a 2-action or 3-action activity on your turn, you must be able to complete it on your turn. You can’t, for example, begin to High Jump using your final action on one turn and then complete it as your first action on your next turn.
Once you have spent all 3 of your actions, your turn ends (as described in Step 3) and the next creature’s turn begins.
You can, however, use only some of your actions and end your turn early. As soon as your turn ends, you lose all your remaining actions, but not your reaction or your ability to use free actions.
If you're Confused, then you use all of your actions to attack random targets.
If you're Fleeing, then you use all your actions to run away from what you're fleeing from.
If you're Controlled, then you controller chooses how you act.
If you're Paralyzed, you can't take any actions other than mental ones.
Once you’ve done all the things you want to do with the actions you have available, you reach the end of your turn.
Take the following steps in any order you choose. Play then proceeds to the next creature in the initiative order.

These weapons are used as a pair, complementing each other.
When you attack with a twin weapon, you add a circumstance bonus to the damage roll equal to the weapon’s number of damage dice if you have previously attacked with a different weapon of the same type this turn.
The weapons must be of the same type to benefit from this trait, but they don’t need to have the same Runes.
This weapon can be wielded with two hands.
Doing so changes its weapon damage die to the indicated value.
This change applies to all the weapon’s damage dice, such as those from Striking runes.
You wield power to rule and enslave others.

An unarmed attack uses your body rather than a manufactured weapon.
An unarmed attack isn’t a weapon, though it’s categorized with weapons for weapon groups, and it might have weapon traits.
Since it’s part of your body, an unarmed attack can’t be Disarmed.
It also doesn’t take up a hand, though a fist or other grasping appendage follows the same rules as a Free-Hand weapon. (You can’t attack with a free-hand weapon if you’re wielding anything in that hand or otherwise using that hand.)
Ignore the reduction to your Speed from any armor you wear.
In addition, any time you’re taking a penalty to your Speed from some other reason (such as from the Encumbered condition or from a spell), deduct 5 feet from the penalty. For example, the encumbered condition normally gives a –10-foot penalty to Speed, but it gives you only a –5-foot penalty.
If your Speed is taking multiple penalties, pick only one penalty to reduce.

You’re sleeping, or you’ve been knocked out.
You can’t act.
You take a –4 status penalty to AC, Perception, and Reflex saves, and you have the Blinded and Flat-Footed conditions.
When you gain this condition, you fall Prone and drop items you are wielding or holding unless the effect states otherwise or the GM determines you’re in a position in which you wouldn’t.
If you’re unconscious because you’re Dying, you can’t wake up while you have 0 Hit Points. If you are restored to 1 Hit Point or more via healing, you lose the dying and unconscious conditions and can act normally on your next turn.
If you are unconscious and at 0 Hit Points, but not dying, you naturally return to 1 Hit Point and awaken after sufficient time passes. The GM determines how long you remain unconscious, from a minimum of 10 minutes to several hours. If you receive healing during this time,you lose the unconscious condition and can act normally on your next turn.
If you’re unconscious and have more than 1 Hit Point (typically because you are asleep or unconscious due to an effect), you wake up in one of the following ways. Each causes you to lose the unconscious condition.
You lose all Cover when you are knocked Unconscious.

You’re connected to groups that know what’s going on in the streets, and you can get information out of them quickly.
When you use Society to Gather Information in an area where you have a network (typically a settlement where you’ve spent at least a week or spent a day of downtime to build a network faster), you can contact a member of these groups to get information directly from them.
This usually takes about an hour, and it doesn’t draw as much attention as Gathering Information in public might. The check and information gained otherwise follow the normal rules for Gather Information.
In addition, if you have successfully consulted the underground network, you get a +1 circumstance bonus to the next check to Recall Knowledge you attempt about the subject you were Gathering Information on, or a +2 circumstance bonus if you’re using Underworld Lore for the check.

If a creature is Undetected, you don’t know what space it occupies, you’re Flat-Footed to it, and you can’t easily target it.
Using the Seek basic action can help you find an undetected creature, usually making it Hidden from you instead of undetected.
If a creature is undetected, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re unaware of its presence—you might suspect an undetected creature is in the room with you, even though you’re unable to find its space. The Unnoticed condition covers creatures you’re entirely unaware of.
Targeting an undetected creature is difficult. If you suspect there’s a creature around, you can pick a square and attempt an attack. This works like targeting a hidden creature, but the flat check (against DC 11) and attack roll are both rolled in secret by the GM. The GM won’t tell you why you missed—whether it was due to failing the flat check, rolling an insufficient attack roll, or choosing the wrong square.
The GM might allow you to try targeting an undetected creature with some spells or other abilities in a similar fashion. Undetected creatures are subject to area effects normally.
For instance, suppose an enemy elf wizard cast Invisibility and then Sneaked away. You suspect that with the elf’s Speed of 30 feet, they probably moved 15 feet toward an open door. You move up and attack a space 15 feet from where the elf started and directly on the path to the door. The GM secretly rolls an attack roll and flat check, but they know that you were not quite correct— the elf was actually in the adjacent space! The GM tells you that you missed, so you decide to make your next attack on the adjacent space, just in case. This time, it’s the right space, and the GM’s secret attack roll and flat check both succeed, so you hit!
You are Undetected to everyone when Invisible.

Uneven ground is an area unsteady enough that you need to Balance or risk falling Prone and possibly injuring yourself, depending on the specifics of the uneven ground.
You are Flat-Footed on uneven ground.
Each time you are hit by an attack or fail a save on uneven ground, you must succeed at a Reflex save (with the same DC as the Acrobatics check to Balance) or fall prone.
| Steady Balance | Uneven Ground | Makes you not flat-footed on uneven ground. |

Prerequisites Legendary in Arcana.
You’ve started to make a meaningful connection about the common underpinnings of the four traditions of magic and magical essences, allowing you to understand them all through an arcane lens.
Whenever you use an action or a skill feat that requires a Nature, Occultism, or Religion check, depending on the magic tradition, you can use Arcana instead.
If you would normally take a penalty or have a higher DC for using Arcana on other magic (such as when using Identify Magic), you no longer do so.

A character also has many vague senses—ones that can alert you that something is there but aren’t useful for zeroing in on it to determine exactly what it is.
The most useful of these for a typical character is the sense of smell (Scent).
At best, a vague sense can be used to detect the presence of an Unnoticed creature, making it Undetected.
Even then, the vague sense isn’t sufficient to make the creature Hidden or Observed.

You disguise the targets as other creatures of the same body shape and roughly similar height (within 6 inches) and weight (within 50 pounds).
The disguise can hide the targets’ identities or let them appear to be of another ancestry, but it’s not precise enough to impersonate specific individuals.

You choose the disguise for each target; for example, you could make one target appear to be a dwarf and another an elf.
Casting veil counts as setting up a disguise for the purpose of the Impersonate action. It allows the target to ignore any circumstance penalties they might take for being disguised as dissimilar creatures, and it gives the targets a +4 status bonus to Deception checks to prevent others from seeing through their disguises, and add their level even if untrained.

A verbal component is a vocalization of words of power.
Shouting out verbal components forces magic out into the world via a word laden with magical power. Spells that require only a verbal component tend to be direct and forceful, such as power word kill or power word stun. Verbal components are especially unsubtle, so spells that benefit from stealth, such as invisibility, might not have any verbal components in favor of having somatic components, material components, or both.
You must speak them in a strong voice, so it’s hard to conceal that you’re Casting a Spell.
The spell gains the Concentrate trait.
You must be able to speak to provide this component.
The target does not have to be able to understand or hear you.
If you’re a Bard Casting a Spell from the Occult tradition while holding a musical instrument, you can can usually play an instrument for spells requiring somatic or material components, as long as it takes at least one of your hands to do so. If you use an instrument, you don’t need a spell component pouch or another hand free. You can usually also play an instrument for spells requiring verbal components, instead of speaking.

Vitality radiates outward from you, allowing others to supplicate and receive healing.
Once per round, either you or an ally can use an Interact action to supplicate and lay hands upon you to regain Hit Points.
Each time the beacon heals someone, it decreases in strength. It restores 4d10 Hit Points to the first creature, 4d8 Hit Points to the second, 4d6 Hit Points to the third, and 4d4 Hit Points to the fourth, after which the spell ends.

The ground opens up, spraying a column of lava high into the air in a vertical cylinder, dealing 14d6 damage to creatures in the area with a basic Reflex save.
The lava rapidly cools and encases creatures in the area.
A creature that fails or critically fails their basic Reflex save against the damage is also encased.
A creature encased in rock is Clumsy 1 and takes a –10‑foot status penalty to its Speeds.
All normal terrain is Difficult Terrain to an encased flying creature, and such creatures immediately descend 20 feet the moment they’re encased, but they don’t take damage from this fall.
A creature encased in rock can attempt to Escape against your spell DC to end the effect.
Otherwise, the creature remains encased until it takes a total of 50 damage, freeing it from the rock.
Additionally, creatures in the area and those within 5 feet of the lava column automatically take 3d6 damage from the intense heat, regardless of the results of their saving throws.

You belch forth a swarm of magical vermin. You evoke and shape the creatures from your own imagination, allowing you to change the appearance of the creatures (typically a mix of centipedes, roaches, wasps, and worms), but this doesn’t change the effect of the spell.

A creature that fails its saving throw also becomes Sickened 1.

Spells that create walls list the depth, length, and height of the wall, also specifying how it can be positioned.
Some walls can be shaped; you can manipulate the wall into a form other than a straight line, choosing its contiguous path square by square.
The path of a shaped wall can’t enter the same space more than once, but it can double back so one section is adjacent to another section of the wall.
Prerequisites Master in Athletics.
You can use your momentum from a jump to propel yourself off a wall.
If you’re adjacent to a wall at the end of a jump (whether performing a High Jump, Long Jump, or Leap), you don’t fall as long as your next action is another jump.
Furthermore, since your previous jump gives you momentum, you can use High Jump or Long Jump as a single action, but you don’t get to Stride as part of the activity.
You can use Wall Jump only once in a turn, unless you’re legendary in Athletics, in which case you can use Wall Jump as many times as you can use consecutive jump actions in that turn.

You sculpt a barrier of ice that blocks sight and, once shattered, freezes foes.
You create either a 1-foot-thick wall of ice in a straight line up to 60 feet long and 10 feet high (the wall doesn’t have to be vertical, but it must be anchored on both sides to a solid surface) or a 1-foot-thick, 10-foot radius hemisphere of ice. If you wish, the wall can be of a smaller length, height, or radius.
You must create the wall in an unbroken open space so its edges don’t pass through any creatures or objects, or the spell is lost.
The ice that makes up the wall is opaque.
Each 10-foot-by-10-foot section of the wall has AC 10, Hardness 10, and 40 Hit Points, and it’s immune to critical hits, damage, and precision damage.
A section destroyed by means other than fire leaves behind a chilling mass of ice that is Difficult Terrain and deals 2d6 cold damage to any creature passing through it.
A section also has weakness to 15; a section of the wall destroyed by fire melts, evaporating into water and steam.

You scramble a creature’s mental faculties and sensory input.
The target must attempt a Will saving throw.
Regardless of the result of that save, the target is then temporarily immune for 10 minutes.
Warp mind’s effects happen instantly, so Dispel Magic and other effects that counteract spells can’t counteract them. However, Alter Reality, Miracle, Primal Phenomenon, Restoration, or Wish can still counteract the effects.
Incapacitation effect: All targets of more than twice the spell level use the result one better than the save they rolled.

Experience and training have taught you that water has just enough surface tension for a master sprinter to traverse the surface.
When you Stride in a straight line, if you move at least half your Speed over ground, you can move any amount of the remaining distance across a level body of water.
If you don’t end your Stride on solid ground, you fall into the water.
If you’re legendary in Athletics, as long as you start on solid ground, any part of your Stride can cross the water’s surface, even if you aren’t moving a straight line, though you still fall into the water if you don’t end your movement on solid ground.

Requirements You have a deity.
An immense weapon of force appears, hovering in the air above the target.
The weapon has the ghostly visual appearance of your deity’s favored weapon.
Name "war" or "peace" when you cast this spell.
If you name “war,” mentally choose one creature. This must be a creature both you and the target can see. The target instinctively knows which creature this is. At the end of each of the target’s turns, if the target did not use a hostile action against the creature you chose during that turn, the weapon Strikes the target.
If you name “peace,” mentally choose up to five allies. The target instinctively knows who those allies are. The weapon Strikes the target each time the target uses a Hostile Action against you or one of your allies. The weapon Strikes only once per action, even if the action targets multiple allies (such as for a Fireball or a Whirlwind Strike).
Strikes with the weapon are melee weapon attacks, but they use your spell attack modifier.
Regardless of its appearance, the weapon deals force damage equal to 3d10 plus your spellcasting ability modifier. When the weapon Strikes, you can deal damage of the normal damage type of the weapon instead of force damage (or any of the available damage types, for a versatile weapon).
The weapon takes a multiple attack penalty, which increases throughout the target’s turn, but its penalty is separate from yours.
No other statistics or attributes of the weapon apply, and even a ranged weapon attacks adjacent creatures only.
A weapon of judgment is a weapon for the purposes of triggers, resistances, and so forth.
The weapon doesn’t take up space, grant flanking, or have any other attributes a creature would.
The weapon can’t make any attack other than its Strike, and feats or spells that affect weapons do not apply to this weapon.
Heightened (10th) The force damage increases by 1d10.

You swing a weapon you’re holding, and the weapon magically multiplies into duplicates that swipe at all creatures in either a cone or an emanation.
This flurry deals four dice of damage to creatures in the area with a basic Reflex save. This damage has the same type as the weapon and uses the same die size.
Determine the die size as if you were attacking with the weapon; for instance, if you were wielding a two-hand weapon in both hands, you’d use its two-hand damage die.
If the creature rolls a critical failure on the basic Reflex save, they are also subject to the weapon's Critical Specialization Effect.
Heightened (+1) Add another damage die.

You create a sticky web in the area that impedes creatures’ movement each time they try to move through it.
Squares filled with the web are Difficult Terrain.
Each square can be cleared of the web by a single attack or effect that deals at least 5 slashing damage or 1 fire damage. A square has AC 5, and it automatically fails its saving throws.
Each time a creature in the web begins to use a move action or enters the web during a move action, it must attempt an Athletics check or Reflex save against your spell DC to avoid taking a circumstance penalty to its Speeds or becoming immobilized.
A creature that gets out of the web ceases to take a circumstance penalty to its Speed from the web.

You surround yourself in a vortex of whirling colorful scarves of force that obfuscate you and disorient your foes.
You gain the benefits of the Concealed condition, but only against ranged and melee attacks.
When a melee attack fails to hit you because of the flat check for the concealed condition, the scarves snag the weapon or unarmed attack, and the creature takes a –1 circumstance penalty to further attacks with that weapon or unarmed attack until the end of its turn (or the end of its next turn, if it wasn’t the creature’s turn).
The timing of the scarves’ movement is harder to predict for ranged attackers, so the flat check for the concealed condition against ranged attacks increases from DC 5 to DC 6.
You can Dismiss this spell.
Heightened (+2) The circumstance penalty to further attacks with a melee weapon or unarmed attack the scarves snag increases by 1. The DC of the flat check for the concealed condition against ranged attacks increases by 1.

When you cast this spell, each target transforms into a vaguely cloud-like form and is picked up by a wind moving in the direction of your choice.
You can change the wind’s direction by using a single action, which has the trait.

You state a wish, making your greatest desire come true.
A wish spell can produce any one of the following effects.
The GM might allow you to try using wish to produce greater effects than these, but doing so might be dangerous or the spell might have only a partial effect.
Although it is a common joke, there is no rules support in this game for the idea that any Wish is interpreted pedantically with intent to cause harm.

You utter a liberating word of power that frees a creature. They do not have to be able to hear or understand you.
You suppress one of the following conditions of your choice: Confused, Frightened, Grabbed, or Paralyzed.
The target isn’t affected by the chosen condition, and if you suppress the Grabbed condition, the target automatically breaks free from any grab affecting it when you Cast the Spell.
If you don’t remove the effect that provided the condition, the condition returns after the spell ends. For example, if a spell was making the target confused for 1 minute, word of freedom would let the target act normally for a round, but the confused condition would return afterward.

If you tell a target to do something, it must comply with your request, though if it would normally find the task repugnant, it can attempt a Will save at the end of its turn each round due to the cognitive dissonance. On a success, it ends the spell’s effects on itself entirely.

You designate an area in which creatures are compelled to speak only truth. Creatures within or entering the area have difficulty lying.
Each potentially affected creature must attempt a Will save when the spell is cast or when the creature first enters the area. It uses the results of this initial save if it leaves and reenters the area.
Affected creatures are aware of this enchantment; therefore, they can avoid answering questions to which they would normally respond with a lie, or they can be evasive as long as they remain within the boundaries of the truth.
